    Hello,
    I’m wondering if there is a template tag or other way to create a greeting to site visitors after they have logged in. For example “Welcome Back NickName!” Where the nickname is the user’s.

    I’ve looked through the list of tags but I don’t see any, any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    This could be useful.

    I haven’t been able to find the tag either….
    You could check for a register plug-in and copy their code as well.

    sorry for the poor help.

    This bit of PHP will do the trick in a theme or something.

    if (is_user_logged_in()) {
// user is logged in, say welcome back
$user = wp_get_current_user();
echo 'Welcome back '. $user->display_name . '!';
} else {
// user is not logged in
echo 'Hello Mr. Anonymous!';
}

    That worked like a charm, Otto thank you so much!
