Update: I didn’t notice this until recently, but my entire sidebar gets taken off when I save the php code in the main tag. I noticed that the only part of the custom page template where I can add any php is at the very bottom. Putting it at the top makes the page display a 404 error.

But even with adding it to the very bottom it does not work!

I also researched some more and if you go to this page:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_User#add_role.28_.24role_.29

It actually says that if we are not referencing a specific user to use this:
<?php $current_user = wp_get_current_user(); ?>
so I thought that maybe I just needed to replace the first line: $user = new WP_User($userid);
with that get_current_user code, that it would work.

But nope. Still dont work.

Added this “made up” two-line code to my page inside wordpress text editor after failing with the custom page template, using the insert php shortcode, and it actually removes all page content! So it didn’t even like the newly added code I placed in it, so must not be proper, so obviously I am not using the “get_current_user” line the right way.

So how do I use the get_current_user function so that I don’t have to only identify a specific user, and then add the function of “add_role”?

This is so confusing. It must take coders years and years to understand all this stuff!

Never mind! Don’t know what was going on the other day, but I logged back out of my admin panel and back in, and checked off the admin debug just to test it out again. And now it works! Maybe there was something going on with my cache at the time.

Thanks for your time. 🙂

Also, I would actually like to make it uncloseable for 10 seconds (not just 4.6 seconds)… but I guess I can’t? Do you have this option in your pro version?

Never mind… I disabled your firewall and it still is not working. I really dont know what is going on…

Just in case you misunderstand, I do realize that your content IS restricted, and can’t be visible by refresh, when it’s customize to not show at a specified time or date.

But of course with my situation, I only need to restrict it based on how long they have been viewing that page. So it can be at ANY time of the day, and on ANY date.

Just wanted to clarify… thanks. 🙂

Hi,

I just wanted to say that I decided to use the “2013” theme, where I added this code to the index.php file (the one located on your FAQ of the plugins details):

<?php // theme 2013
/**
Template Name: page-rencontre
*/
get_header(); ?>
<div id=”primary” class=”content-area”>
<div id=”content” class=”site-content” role=”main”>
<div class=”site-info”>
<?php if(is_user_logged_in()) {$renc=new RencontreWidget; $renc->widget(0,0);} ?>
<?php if(!is_user_logged_in()) Rencontre::f_ficheLibre(); ?>
</div><!– .site-info –>
</div><!– #content –>
</div><!– #primary –>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

And everything works perfect. There are NO issues when using the 2013 theme. Even the registered users that I signed up through the register/login links, are showing up under the “members” tab, unlike before when I was using the new “2016” theme.

So the issue is NOT that I did the installation wrong, or missed any of the fields. The issue is simply that the new 2016 theme is different than the other themes, in that maybe it does not allow the total fuctionality of your template/code.

Anyway you can figure out what the full php code should be for 2016 theme? I really like that theme the best.

Thanks,
Lori
