Wordpress - How to add condition "if user logged in" for html/css/js menu-CodePudding

I'm working with elementor, in the html widget I wrote some code to create a menu and it works fine. Now I want to hide a part of the menu to make it visible only to logged in users. I understand that this is done with php, but elementor's html widget does not support php. So I'm wondering if there is an alternative to php or if there is a way to indirectly apply php to my menu ?

Here is my test menu, it's just a test so there are only two items. Can anyone help me understand how I can accomplish this? Sorry but I'm new and I'm trying to learn.

I appreciate any response, thanks.

Edit with possible solution: in wp-content / themes / child-theme / I created a folder called custom_menu, inside this I added two files, menu_structure.php and menu_style.css. The php file contains the html code with the script, while in the css I inserted the styles.

Then I went to the functions.php file and added this line include_once get_theme_file_path ('/custom_menu/menu_structure.php'); This is to make wordpress understand that menu_structure.php must execute the functions, otherwise the shortcode would not work.

Finally, in the menu_structure.php file I added a shortcode, inside it I then added html menu and script. That's how...

add_shortcode( 'mob_menu' , 'mobile_menu' );
function mobile_menu(){
?>

//Here I called the style css
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://motustrength.it/wp-content/themes/astra-child/custom_menu/menu_style.css" type="text/css">

<?php if(is_user_logged_in()): ?> 

//Here I put html div menu...

<script>
//Here I put the script...
</script>

<?php endif; ?>

<?php
}

This is the initial code that I have inside elementor html widget

var menu = document.querySelector(".mob_menu_button");
      function mobile_menu(e) {
        e.stopPropagation();
        var x = document.getElementById("mts_mobile_menu");
        if (!x.classList.contains("active")) {
          x.classList.add("active");
          menu.innerHTML = "<span>Close menu</span>";
        } else {
          x.classList.add("side_hide");
          menu.innerHTML = "<span>Open menu</span>";

          setTimeout(function () {
            x.classList.remove("active");
            x.classList.remove("hide");
          }, 100);
        }
      }
      
      document.addEventListener("click", function (e) {
        var x = document.getElementById("mts_mobile_menu");
        if (e.target.id !== "mts_mobile_menu" && x.classList.contains("active")) {
          x.classList.add("hide");
          menu.innerHTML = "<span>Open menu</span>";

          setTimeout(function () {
            x.classList.remove("active");
            x.classList.remove("hide");
          }, 400);
        }
      });

CodePudding user response：

(css hacks may hide the menu item, but it will still be available to everyone whether logged in or not).

I don't use wordpress, but it's method for checking/returning login status seems to be is_user_logged_in(). See wordpress documentation. You would enclose the section you wish to hide in a conditional with that method.

I haven't tested the following, but it would look something like this:

<?php if(is_user_logged_in()): ?> 
 <div >
  <a href="ordini">
   <i >2</i>
   <span >Private Link</span>
  </a>
 </div>
<?php endif; ?>

There is probably a plugin that would allow you to add php, probably within a <script> tag or something.

CodePudding user response：

Now I want to hide a part of the menu to make it visible only to logged in users.

You can achieve this by CSS only. A class named logged-in has been added in the <body > tag. You can give a unique class to your desired DOM element and apply the CSS. Ex.

<!--Only who is logged in can see-->
<div >
    <a href="ordini">
        <i >2</i>
        <span >Private Link</span>
    </a>
</div>

CSS:

.__unique_class {display:none;}
.logged-in .__unique_class {display:inline-block;}
