   About 9 months ago I designed some pages for a WordPress site that had different content if the user wasd logged in. The text of the page surounds the text to be shown if the user is _not_ logged in with [not_logged_in]...{/not_logged_in], and the text to be shown when he _is_ logged in by [logged_in]...[/logged_in]. It all works fine on my existing site, but I can't get it working on a new site, and I can't remember how I did it... I can't see any obvious plugin or anything. Can anyone suggest what is making this work?

   Thanks - Rowan

   Couldn't you use this function to do something similar?

   The body_class template tag, added in WP 2.8, also adds a 'logged-in' class to the body which could be used for conditional styling.

   These shortcode examples will do just that:

   stanzl - you are a star! That's exactly what I needed to know. I've found the code I must have added to functions.php, so I can now add it to my new site and PROBLEM SOLVED!

   Many many thanks - Rowan
