I am trying to limit display of form fields based on some field data OR whether the user viewing the form is an administrator.

So I have this that uses the custom field 'status'
[cred_show_group if="( $(status) eq '1238' ) OR ( $(status) eq '1032' ) OR ( $(status) eq '955' ) OR ( $(status) eq '70' )" mode="fade-slide"]

What would I need to add to this allow an administrator to see the group whatever the status field contains?

Many thanks

Chris

Hello,

The shortcode [cred_show_group] is for custom fields/taxonomies, it does not work for user role, but you can try with [wpv-conditional] shortcode, for example:

[wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-current-user info="role"]' eq 'administrator' ) "]
   
here display the field group...
   
[/wpv-conditional]
