   Hello everyone,

   I am trying to make certain content visible to staff members only. This is what I have so far:

   <?php if ($current_user->ID == 1){ ?>
   <!--this is what I want only certain users to see-->
   <?php } ?>

   This works great if I want this information visible only to the admin. However, we have more than one staff member. Is there a way I can enter multiple user IDs? Or is there perhaps an ever better way to manipulate the code?

   Thanks.

   Best recommendation is to find a plugin that will help with that:

   http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tags/restriction
   http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tags/member
   http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tags/membership

   One example:
   http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/capa/

   These plugins are all great for specific pages and posts. However, I just have a bit of information (admin links etc.) in sidebar.php that I would like to make visible only specific users.

   I guess then the PHP OR operator is what you want:

   <?php if ( $current_user->ID == 1 || $current_user->ID == 2 ){ ?>
