How can i make it so that only one admin at a time is able to access the menu from a plugin.
For eg.

public checkformenu(id)
{
   if(menuopen==true)
     {
        client_print(id, "An admin is already using the menu")
      }
   else
        openmenu(id)
}

thank you for your help.

Post in Suggestion/Requests section if you don't know how to script.

PHP Code:

new bool:g_bMenuOpen;

public Menu( id )
{
    if( g_bMenuOpen )
    {
        client_print( id, print_chat, "Menu is already being used by another admin" );
        return PLUGIN_HANDLED;
    }
    
    g_bMenuOpen = true;
    
    new iMenu = menu_create( "Menu Title", "MenuHandler" );
    
    menu_additem( iMenu, "Item1" );
    menu_additem( iMenu, "Item2" );
    menu_additem( iMenu, "Item3" );
    
    menu_display( id, iMenu, 0 );
}

public MenuHandler( id, iMenu, iItem )
{
    g_bMenuOpen = false;

    // code
}

This false due to menu override.

Check in a loop if a player has that menu opened.

What do you mean by 'menu override', he didn't mention creating multiple menus

[Natsheh]

Menu override means opening a new menu while the old menu is being displayed which result in not calling the handler of the old menu that were displayed.

So how does looping through all players help in any way?

[Natsheh]

To check if a player has the menu opened.

You are wrong. AMXX closes menu when someone want to show another menu.

Seems like it was an old bug not sure if it was fixed in v182

Still it will be much better to use player_menu_info to check if the user has the menu displayed since it covers most cases.
