The following WordPress snippet will allow you to show content inside the shortcode to logged in users only. People who are not logged in will be shown a login form.
Start with the below WordPress snippet.
NOTE: To insert the snippet into your WordPress site, we recommend using the Code Snippets plugin instead of modifying your functions.php file.
// Snippet from NibbleGuru.com function member_only_func( $atts, $content = null ) { // Make sure the content is not null or empty // else we do not do anything as there is no content to protect. if(!is_null($content) && trim($content) != "") { // Make sure user is logged in and is not viewing the feed // else we print the login form if (is_user_logged_in() && !is_feed()) { return $content; } else { $redirect_after_login = get_permalink(); $login_form = wp_login_form(array('echo' => false, 'redirect' => $redirect_after_login)); return $login_form; } } else { return ""; } } // Hook the shortcode add_shortcode('member_only', 'member_only_func');
To use the shortcode just use [member_only] tag like following snippet in any post or page:
[member_only] This content will only will seen by members. Other people will see login form instead of this text. Replace this text with text of your choice. [/member_only]
