Content hiding/showing

Hi Rob,

To show content to users who are not a member of one particular group, you can use this:

[groups_non_member group="Foobar"]
Here is the content that you want to show to people who are not a member of the Foobar group.
[/groups_non_member]

Shortcode reference: https://docs.itthinx.com/document/groups/shortcodes/groups_non_member/

To show content to someone who belongd to a certain group:

[groups_member group="Smurfs"]
You're in the Smurfs group.
[/groups_member]

Shortcode reference: https://docs.itthinx.com/document/groups/shortcodes/groups_member/

And you can combine these two, this should be a solution to your question:

[groups_non_member group="Blue"]

You are not a member of the Blue group.

[groups_member group="Red"]

... and you are a member of the Red group.

[/groups_member]

[/groups_non_member]

By the way, if you haven’t rated the plugin already it would be great if you could do so, the reviews seem to help to spread the word ??

Cheers

Kento, I believe I have rated the plugin before as I have used it before, but I will rate again.

Regarding my request, are you saying we can nest the shortcodes? I don’t think I communicated properly what I am trying to do, because what I used from your last reply didn’t work.

Specifically, I need to show content only to users who are not members of 2 specific groups simultaneously…not that they are not members of one group or another, but that they are not members of either group.

So, I need to show content X to people who are not members of Group 1 and who are also not members of Group 2.

If they are not members of Group 1, but they are members of Group 2, then content X will not show.

Alternatively, I could just hide the content from people who are members of either group. That may be easier. Is there a shortcode to hide content from users in certain groups, but to show it to everyone else?

I hope I am being more clear this time. How can I accomplish this?

Thanks,
Rob

Hi Rob,

You can nest two different shortcodes, but nesting two instances of the same shortcode with different parameters will fail.

Alternatively, I could just hide the content from people who are members of either group. That may be easier. Is there a shortcode to hide content from users in certain groups, but to show it to everyone else?

The following example is a solution if you can work with not showing the content to someone in either or both of two groups (you can also specify more than two groups) :

Content shown to those who do not belong to Blue or who do not belong to Red:
[groups_non_member group="Blue,Red"]
Shown if not a member of Blue or not a member of Red.
[/groups_non_member]

Cheers

Kento,

Sorry for delayed reply. But yes I had actually tried the shortcode you just sent after your last email about combining groups for groups_member.

It worked just as you said for groups_non_member also.

Thanks again for the great plugin!
