   hi,
   i want to show/hide fields for users that are logged in/out.
   i know i can edit the code, for example i've added this to modules/submit.php:
   

   if ( !is_user_logged_in() ) {
       return;
   }

   inside wpcf7_submit_shortcode_handler() just before return $html;

   but this will be overwritten with a new cf7 update.
   but is it the best way??

   maybe there is some short-code attribute to show/hide according to user logged or not?

   Most theme add a class like "logged-in" to the body element when logged-in user is accessing. So how about adding this style to theme's stylesheet?

   body.logged-in input.wpcf7-submit {
       display: none;
   }

   You can change it as you like.

   nice! this css works to show the submit button only for logged users:
   

   input.wpcf7-submit {
       display: none;
   }
   body.logged-in input.wpcf7-submit {
       display: inline;
   }

   but...
   1) once again - if i update the theme files i will loose this functionality.
   2) what if i have several field elements, with the same class, but want to make only some of them available according to logged user? sure, i can do this by adding id, but this would make me very much coupled.

   would be nice (and easy to implement) if each cf7 field will get an option: "show only to logged users".
   or maybe a step further: filter by permission.

   is there a way to write cf7 plugin that does that?
