Hi,

I want to display something only if the're is a logged in user.

I know it should be easy with a wpv-conditional shortcode, but i'm not sure how. I've tried this but it don't work.

[wpv-conditional if="('[wpv-current-user info='login']' eq '[true]')"]
my content
[/wpv-conditional]

Thank you

The "ne" doesn't seem to work, but with a "eq" it does.

So with your links I've come up with those 2 shortcode that works.

[wpv-conditional if="('[wpv-current-user info='id']' eq '')"]
Logged off
[/wpv-conditional]

[wpv-conditional evaluate="false" if="('[wpv-current-user info='id']' eq '')"]
Logged in
[/wpv-conditional]

Thank you.
