Please refer to closed ticket at https://toolset.com/forums/topic/creating-conditional-for-displaying-listings/
I created my content template for displaying single listings using Divi. I have one section with a two-column row filled with code modules that include Toolset shortcodes. I have one module that includes a conditional that permits admins and editors to view edit and delete listing links.
I do not know how to make add a conditional to the Divi content template that performs the following ....
If a single listing property status is "archived" and the user is not an "Administrator" or "Editor", do not display the single listing.
Here's the conditional tag I created ....
[wpv-conditional if="[wpv-conditional if="( CONTAINS(#(status),'archived') AND ( '[wpv-current-user info='role']' eq 'Administrator' ) OR ( '[wpv-current-user info='role']' eq 'Editor' )[/wpv-conditional]
However, I still need an Administrator or Editor to see the single listing no matter if the Status is "archived" or "published"
I hope you can help. 🙂 Eric
Hi Eric,
Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.
It is possible to nest and/or combine the conditions as explained in this guide:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/views/conditional-html-output-in-views/nesting-and-combining-conditions/
A first parent condition can check whether the content has archived status or not and if that is true, the inner condition can check whether the current user's role is administrator or editor:
[wpv-conditional if="( CONTAINS(#(status),'archived') )"]
[wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-current-user info='role']' eq 'administrator' ) OR ( '[wpv-current-user info='role']' eq 'editor' )"]
this archive content should only be visible to admin or editor
[/wpv-conditional]
[/wpv-conditional]
I hope this helps and please let me know if you need any further assistance around this.
regards,
Waqar
Thank you. However, I still do not know where to place the conditional in my content template Divi layout. Also, I cannot add any Fields and Views into a Divi text module. When I click on insert shortcode, the shortcode does not get added. 🙁
Thanks for writing back.
When the shortcode doesn't get added, do you see any warning or error message in the browser's console or on the screen?
To troubleshoot this, I'll suggest the following steps:
1. Please make sure that WordPress, active theme, and plugins are all updated to the latest versions.
2. It would be interesting to test this with all non-Toolset plugins disabled.
If it's fixed, you can start adding the disabled items, one-by-one, to narrow down to a possible conflicting one.
3. In case the issue still persists, I'll need to see exactly how this Divi template is set up in the admin area. You're welcome to share temporary admin login details along with the link to a page with this content template.
Note: Your next reply will be private and please make a complete backup copy, before sharing the access details.
Hello,
I have tried the credentials you provided above, I get below errors:
Your access to this site has been temporarily limited by the site owner
Please check it, make sure your test site is valid for test and debug, thanks
The login URL is /spm-login
You will automatically get blocked if you use the standard /wp-login.php
🙂 Eric
I have tried it several times, open URL /spm-login, I see a WP login window, fill and submit the login form with the credentials you provided, I see the same error message:
Your access to this site has been temporarily limited by the site owner
I am sorry Luo. I reset the login page to hidden link
I also whitelisted your IP address. Please give that a try. 🙂 Eric
Hi Eric,
Luo will be on vacation this week, so I'll be resuming back on this ticket.
Can you please disable the GEO IP restriction during the course of this troubleshooting or whitelist my IP address: 72.255.36.152 too?

Done Waqar. Thank you. 🙂 Eric
Waqar. The username is actually "Toolset"
Hi Eric,
Thank you for allowing access to the admin area.
I've noticed that the website has a content template "Single Listing" built with Divi builder to show single "Listings" post pages.
Wrapping the entire content of this content template in a conditional block would be tricky, so a better solution would be forcing a different content template conditionally, using "wpv_filter_force_template" filter:
https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/views-filters/#wpv_filter_force_template
You can create a new content template and name it something like "Single Listing (archived)". You don't have to assign this content template to any post type or page and it will just include the message that you'd like to show when someone other than an admin or editor views the archived single listing page.
Suppose that the ID of the regular "Single Listing" content template is "123" and the ID of the new "Single Listing (archived)" content template is "456", then the code for the "wpv_filter_force_template" filter will look like this:
add_filter( 'wpv_filter_force_template', 'dynamic_template_override_listings', 99, 3 );
function dynamic_template_override_listings( $template_selected, $id, $kind ) {
if ( $template_selected == 123 ) { // assigned template is the one that we need to target
// check if archived
if( has_term( 'archived', 'status' ) ) {
// get current user's role
$user_role = do_shortcode('[wpv-current-user info="role"]');
// if current user's role is not administrator or editor, override the default template
if ( ($user_role != 'administrator') && ($user_role != 'editor') ) {
$template_selected = 456;
}
}
}
return $template_selected;
}
Note: Please replace the content template IDs with the actual ones from your website.
The above code snippet can be included through either Toolset's custom code feature ( ref: https://toolset.com/documentation/adding-custom-code/using-toolset-to-add-custom-code/ ) or through active theme's "functions.php" file.
After that, for "Publish" listings the regular "Single Listing" content template will be used, but for the "Archived" listings the "Single Listing (archived)" content template will be forced (except for admins and editors).
I hope this helps and please let me know if you need any further assistance around this.
regards,
Waqar
Thank you Waqar. Your solution works! 🙂 Eric
