Hi there <\/p>\n
i am relatively new to php and server side scripting. I am trying to include an if\/if else statement in of my pages on my wordpress website. <\/p>\n
i am using the replacement shortcode ‘[insert_php]’ and ‘[\/insert_php]’ instead of the php beginning header and footer. <\/p>\n
What i would like to do is get the current users username and then just display some text if it is==’admin’. If the user name is==’volunteer’ display some other text.<\/p>\n
What i have so far is:<\/p>\n
[insert_php]
\n$current_user=wp_get_current_user();
\necho $current_user->user_login . ‘
‘;
\n[\/insert_php]<\/p>\n
This just displays the username of the user logged in but how do i include an if\/if else statement? I have tried multiple iterations such as below with no success.<\/p>\n
[insert_php]
\n$current_user=wp_get_current_user();
\n[\/insert_php]
\n[insert_php]
\nif($current_user==’admin’) :
\necho $current_user->user_login . ‘
‘;
\nendif;
\n[\/insert_php]<\/p>\n
