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: http://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: http://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!
