protect content by username

[dskallman]

Is there a way to add content to a page for several users and restrict it in a way so that the logged in user can see the content that has been labeled for that specific user and all other information on that page is not. For example:

user1: content

user2: content

user2: content

When user1 logs in that user only sees

user1: content

Is there a way to do this without having to create individual pages/posts?

Thanks,

Dana

Hi Dana we have recently added section protection based on member id. You can find out more about this here:

See the section called “Section Protection for a Specific Member”.

How to Protect a Section of a Post or Page (Partial Protection)

If you are using a later version of eMember you will need to do an update for this to work.

The following post will explain how updates work: https://support.tipsandtricks-hq.com/update-request

One other question, is there a way to change/remove the message that says “Content is restricted.” I don’t want that to appear. I just want what the user that is logged in to see what the settings permit, but not that other content is restricted. Does that make sense?

Maybe I am stretching it here, but is it possible to do an id X user is logged they see this and nothing else, so it doesn’t push content down on the page that’s hidden for other users?

Open the “wp_eMember1.php” file and search for the following line:

return '<b>'.EMEMBER_CONTENT_RESTRICTED.'</b><br/><br/>';

once you find it just replace it with the following:

return '';

This is perfect, thank you!

One similar question, how can I remove the message that comes up when it’s restricted by member level? The text that says ‘Please renew your account.’ I don’t see it in the language file. Is it another line similar to what you listed above?

[amin007]

It does come from the language file but its broken into parts so we can make a link. Look for the following line in the “wp_eMember1.php” file:

return '<b>'. EMEMBER_HIDDEN_CONTENT_MESSAGE. '<br/>'.EMEMBER_PLEASE.' <a href=" '.$account_upgrade_url .'" target=_blank>'.EMEMBER_RENEW.'</a> '.EMEMBER_YOUR_ACCOUNT.'</b>';

Hi Dana,

Take a look..

re.place

So you don’t need doing again every time when updated.
