 * Hello,
 * Thanks for the feedback. Your question is about general PHP/WordPress development,
   and not about the ACF Extended plugin itself. It looks like you’ll have to perform
   some checks in order to display the form or shortcode based on the current logged
   in user.
 * You should take a look at the `wp_get_current_user()` function, so you can compare
   it to the current post author to know if you have to display the form or not.
   See documentation: [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_get_current_user/](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_get_current_user/)
 * Hope it helps!
 * Regards.
