how to hide admin info in author_info.tpl

my vivvo version is 4.1rc2, right now i m using

<vte:if test="!{CURRENT_AUTHOR.is_admin}">

to hide author_info on article page if the author is admin... my problem is that one of my friends is also started helping me on adding news to system, i assigned him to trusted writers group and i also need to hide his info on article page... i tried things like below with no luck...

<vte:if test="!{CURRENT_AUTHOR.is_admin|is_trusted_writer}">

or

<vte:if test="!{CURRENT_AUTHOR.get_id|'x,x'}">

Try with this:

<vte:if test="!{CURRENT_AUTHOR.is_admin}" >
     <vte:if test="!{CURRENT_AUTHOR.is_trusted_writer}" >
           something
     </vte:if>
</vte:if>

</vte:if>

it didnt work, here is what it looks like( he is in premium member group right now thats why i changed is_trusted_writer to is_premium_member)

<vte:if test="!{CURRENT_AUTHOR.is_admin}">
     <vte:if test="!{CURRENT_AUTHOR.is_premium_member}" >
	<vte:template>
		<div id="box_users" class="box box_tabs">
			<div class="box_title_holder">
				<div class="box_title">
					<ul class="tabs12">
						<li><as><span><vte:value select="{LNG_AUTHOR_INFO}" /></span></as></li>
					</ul>
				</div>
			</div>
			<div class="box_body">
				<div class="box_content">	
							<vte:template>
								<ul id="box_most_popular">
								<vte:if test="{CURRENT_AUTHOR.picture}">
									<img src="{CURRENT_AUTHOR.get_picture_href}" alt="image" />
								</vte:if>
								<vte:if test="{CURRENT_AUTHOR.www}">
									 <strong><vte:value select="{CURRENT_AUTHOR.get_name}" /></strong><br /><a href="http://{CURRENT_AUTHOR.www}"><vte:value select="{tum_yazilar_icin}" /></a>

									<vte:else>
									<strong><vte:value select="{CURRENT_AUTHOR.get_name}" /></strong><br /><a href="{CURRENT_AUTHOR.get_href}"><vte:value select="{tum_yazilar_icin}" /></a>

									</vte:else>
								</vte:if>
									<vte:value select="{CURRENT_AUTHOR.get_bio}" />
								</ul>
							</vte:template>
				</div>
			</div>
		</div>
	</vte:template>
     </vte:if>
</vte:if>

Dear God....

Admin -> Preferences -> Users -> Users tab. Just select user roles/groups you'd like to have in "Featured author" box.

If you are running 4.1 (RC 1 or 2) you just highlight the user groups you WANT to have in the authors section. It is there, and it does work, I use it So perhaps it didn't save?

i am pretty sure that it saved... also i checked out author_info.tpl on original template from 4.1 rc2 and changed with my template however i really dont understand how it should check if users author_info.tpl should be visible... in original template only code that makes a check is

<vte:if test="!{CURRENT_AUTHOR.get_id|'1'}">

however this doesnt work even for the user that has the id=1, it just doesnt display anyones author info, i have no idea what the problem might be
