```plaintext
<script type="text/discourse-plugin" version="0.8">
    var u = api.getCurrentUser();
    if (u !== null) {
        u.findDetails().then(function(u) {
            if (!u.groups.some((g) => g.name === 'patrons')) {

                // user isn't a patron, insert code here

            }
        });
    }
</script>

```

This will work, but will be an extra request on every page load.
