Display “Private”

Marked as in post status? WordPress does this automatically in the admin pages. If it’s for a post displayed publically, the post *won’t* display when set to private, so…you might want to provide a bit more info on how you’ve “marked” a post private, and where exactly you need to display this.

Well, this is in follow-up to the implemenation of the post-level plug-in, by Filipe Fortes. If a user has a user level sufficient enough to see a post deemed “private” I would like to indicate so. This way, the user will know they are viewing a post that not everyone can see.

Thanks for the query.

Ah, clear now.

Try something like this to get what you’re after:

<?php if('private' == $post->post_status) { echo "Private!"; } ?>

Ah yes, that will do it! I was attepmting an “if-then-else” statement, but this is even better! Thanks!

Post Levels v0.2 has a function you can use for this: is_private. The sample code you can use is:

<?php if (function_exists('is_private') && is_private()) : ?>
<span class="private">(private)</span>
<?php endif;?>
