    Hi

    I love this plugin and find it super useful. I’m trying to show a message “please login….” to everybody who is logged out. I don’t want logged in users seeing this message.

    “[is_user_logged_in]This content is only shown to logged-in users.[/is_user_logged_in]”

    Does the oppposite. I want to do:
    [!is_user_logged_in]This content is only shown to logged-in users.[/!is_user_logged_in]

    What’s the best way of doing this?

    I’ve also tried:
    [access role=””]Content Here[/access]
    But that just shows it to nobody.

    Any ideas on how to do this?

    I’m currently looking into the same thing. The plugin only seems to hide the content with the [access] shortcode when applied to template files and doesn’t display the error message.

    So my workaround I was looking to do was:

    <?php if ( !current_user_can( 'read_pages ' ) ) { ?>
            Error message here.
<?php } ?>

    This could probably work for you if you are putting it in a template file.

    Could I put that code in my theme functions.php? Or do I need an exec php plugin? I’d prefer to avoid the extra plugin route if possible.
