I want a certain set of buttons to only show if a user is logged in and their role is “subscriber.” The page is http://schoolofbookkeeping.com/webinars/ and the button says “Register for this event.” Any idea how to make this happen?

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in! You can use our protected shortcode to hide certain content from site visitors who are not logged in. Follow the example below.

[x_protect][x_button type="real" shape="square" size="jumbo" href="#example" title="Example"]Square Button[/x_button][/x_protect]

Hope that helps.

Does this provide a login URL to let them know something is hiding? I used CSS to hide it and its working but there’s no way to let the user know to login to see the buttons.

I tried this and it did provide a login but then redirected to wp-login.php after entering subscriber data.

Hi there,

Thanks for updating. Yes the [x_protect] shortcode will ask the user to login to see the content. So I guess the CSS solution is what you want here. But I am not sure if we could track the status “subscriber” for the user, “logged in” could be tracked I guess. You can share your credentials for a subscriber account so that we can have a look.

Cheers!
