How do you set a conditional output based on visitor's country? For example, if user is from US, show content "Hello US visitors". If user is from AU, show content "Hello AU visitors", etc.

Hello, I guess it depends on how you expect to determine the User's country. The WordPress platform does not automatically know which country a User is coming from, nor does Toolset have access to this information automatically. That information would have to come from somewhere like a custom field on the User profile, or an IP-based lookup, or the browser's location API, or a custom PHP function.
- Do you have a custom field "country" that holds this information in the profile of each User?
- Or are you expecting to use an IP-based lookup service, or custom PHP function?
- Or do you want to access the User's location from the browser somehow, like during a distance-based Map search?
- Or some other method? Can you explain?
Hey Christian,
Thanks for the reply.
No, I don't have any saved information of each user. These users who I am looking to get their country data from are users from Google and are first-time visitors (unregistered, never put their info on our site before).
Okay I understand. Toolset does not offer any built-in User location features outside of custom search and distance filters, so you will probably need some custom code to determine that information.
Maybe something like this would be useful:

These are really outside the scope of Toolset support, so I don't have much information available.
My issue is resolved now. Thank you!
