[Resolved] Toolset View's Output Editor's shortcodes visible in frontend

I have this view which I want to show only for logged in users. And if not logged in, I want to show the login form. I thought this code in the view's Output Editor would do the job:

[wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-current-user info='logged_in']' eq 'false' )"]
[wpv-login-form]
[/wpv-conditional]

[wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-current-user info='logged_in']' eq 'true' )"]
[wpv-filter-meta-html]
[wpv-layout-meta-html]
[/wpv-conditional]

But it does the job partly. For the logged out user it doesn't show the content (fine!) but it shows the login form as shortcode. And after logging in, the content of the view is there, but labels are as shortcodes (check attached image). So in a perculiar way this Output Editor field knows some Toolset shortcodes, but not all. Is this intentional?

Hi Katja,

Thank you for getting in touch.

When you remove the conditional from the Output editor does the view display normally? I mean do the shortcodes start to render as intended?

Please let me know and we can take i from there.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi Shane, thank you. Yes, everything looks fine without conditions.

Hi Katja,

Thanks for confirming. Rather than wrapping the Output Editor shortcodes in the conditional, it would be better to wrap the view itself in the conditional.

This way you will hide the view in its entirety as the partial loading of the view could be the cause of the issue.

Try doing it like this,

[wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-current-user info='logged_in']' eq 'true' )"]
[wpv-view name='my-view']
[/wpv-conditional]

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane

Hi Shane, I can't use the nice blocks this way, but the code works, thank you 🙂
