I'm fairly new to wordpress and am looking for code to show a login link on the top bar and also on the menu, the 'my account' page to only show for logged in users.
i can only find the coding is_user_logged_in() which is doing the reverse of what i'm looking for.
using the Menu Items Visibility Control plugin, unless there's a better solution out there?
The function you cited should work fine for this use case.
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
// Show the My Account link
} else {
// Show the login button
}
Or, if you need to check if a user is NOT logged in:
if ( !is_user_logged_in() ) {
// Do something
}

I have created a registration form using Elementor Page Builder. Now, I want to redirect the user to a different page if he/she is trying to access that registration page after logging in.
Is there any Elementor hook available for that? I know the WordPress function called is_user_logged_in().
function my_logged_in_redirect() {
if ( is_user_logged_in() && is_page( 12 ) )
{
wp_redirect( get_permalink( 32 ) );
die;
}
}
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'my_logged_in_redirect' );
You should get the ids of the page where the form is and the id of the page you want to redirect the user to.
Code goes in your child theme functions.php file
Reference: here
The 'Content Area Not Found' error might appear on Elementor designed sites when you use that snippet and try to edit page of ID 12 (in your example) in certain cases.
To avoid this, add the following code before the if-statement of your snippet:
if ( \Elementor\Plugin::$instance->preview->is_preview_mode() ) {
return;
}
Ok, so I found this code, which I modified to suit my needs. Btw, I'm using WooCommerce, which explains the "wc" in some of the function calls:
//Add login/logout link to primary menu
add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'add_loginout_link', 10, 2 );
function add_loginout_link( $items, $args ) {
if (is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'primary') {
$items .= '<li>Log Out</li>';
}
elseif (!is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'primary') {
$items .= '<li>Log In</li>';
}
return $items;
This adds the login/logout menu items, and they work fine. However, they're stuck at the end of the menu, at the moment. I'd like to be able to edit the position using the editor in wp-admin. The solution I thought of was to maybe just create login and logout pages, and use header location redirects with those lines of code in them to get to the proper URLs, but the issue I see with that is that there will always be a login item and logout, no matter what status the user is currently in. Would there maybe be a way to dynamically add a site-wide CSS rule to hide the opposite menu item, based on the log in status?
Or is there an easier way?
Not the best idea but you can try.
Create in wp-admin menu section new menu item like "Custom Link"
Log Out
http://www.example.com/account/customer-logout/
Log In
http://www.example.com/account/
And add a custom class to a WordPress menu item to manage visibility
For example, you will see "logged-in" class on the body of the page and hide "Log In" link or change it to "Account" with the same link.
I have a feature box on my header.php file, because of this the feature box gets displayed in every page and post page as well. What code do I need to keep this feature box only in the homepage and no place else?
You're looking for the is_front_page() function:
if ( is_front_page() ) {
// Show the feature box
} else {
// Do something else
}
I want to restrict WooCommerce products, shop page and category pages to logged in users only.
I do not want to achieve it with any plugin.
Please let me know if anybody done it before with any hook/filter/action.
Or I have to make WooCommerce template pages and add condition over there.
If I was to do this I would hook into the init action that WordPress offers.
Then do something like this in your theme's functions.php file:
function woo_check_logged_in()
{
if ( (is_product() || is_shop() ) && is_user_logged_in() )
{
}
else
{
die("You must be logged in to view this page");
}
}
add_action('init', 'woo_check_logged_in');
I haven't tested this but I believe it should get you on the right path without having to use any plugins.
I have been working on a client's WordPress Website and last day my client want to hide navigation menu and pages from author/contributor categories.
I have searched and tried some of the plugin but didn't get the exact thing. Please let me know what should i use to hide some pages from user and from navigation.
Only Admin can see all the pages and other members should see only 1 section that is allowed to visible for them.
Thank You
use this plugin to manage All roll:
http://wordpress.org/plugins/user-role-editor/
Here is the Complete function for removing each Menu and submenu from wp-admin for another user:
function remove_menus() {
global $menu, $submenu;
$restricted = array(__('Dashboard'), __('Profile'), __('Users'), __('Tools'), __('Comments'), __('Settings'), __('Plugins')); //Here you can also define the name like Pages
end($menu);
while (prev($menu)) {
$value = explode(' ', $menu[key($menu)][0]);
if (in_array($value[0] != NULL ? $value[0] : "", $restricted)) {
unset($menu[key($menu)]);
}
}
unset($menu[5]); // this is just for example
unset($submenu['edit.php'][16]); // this is just for example
}
Now You have to put a conditon for other user i.e:
$thisusername = $current_user->user_login; // this is to get the current user login
if (($thisusername == "user123")) {
add_action('admin_menu', 'remove_menus');
}
Note: You can find many plugins but all of them are not in depth like this code.Well you can try this plugin to manage your user's roles.Capability Manager Plugin
