Cbsubs: show CB field to guest hide to Subscribers

hello

I would like show publicly a field and hide to all subscribers plans. In practice that mean when users are logged-in they must not see the field.

I play many time with all Fields/Tab restriction (using related CBsubs plugin) but I'm unable to get this setup. For example if a set all plans restriction in the section "Field visibility by Viewer's Subscriptions" this work when users are logged-in but of course the field is hidden for public users.

If I choose all available plans inside "Availability depending on profile Owner's subscriptions" this don't change nothing.


any clue ?

thank

CBSubs doesn't have reverse access controls (take away something rather instead of add).

Best I can suggest is use CB Query Field to check the database for the viewing users user_id to see if they have an active subscription. Then use a delimiter field with an IF substitution to check against the query field. If they have a subscription (maybe count the rows, etc..) then hide the field.

Can also try accomplishing this with view access levels by adding users to a paid usergroup, then create a view access level for that usergroup, next use a delimiter field with an IF substitution checking if that view access level exists for the viewing user and if it doesn't then display the contents.

Thank for suggestion. I used a IF substitution for let me display my field only to Guest and hide it to all others connected users. I spent almost two hours in testing for get the correct substitution code who is:

[cb:if user="#me" user_id="0"]I am A GUEST.[/cb:if]

The one present on your tutorial who seem to make the same job is:

[cb:if user="#displayedOrMe" user_id<="0"]I am A GUEST.[/cb:if]

but this one don't work for me... In found the other code in a old forum topic. In fact I don't understand also how the others following parameters work and in which case we are supposed to use it:

#me, #displayed, #displayedOrMe

What is the difference ?

Other question:

Any operator are available for check if a field is empty when using substitution ? Your tutorial make mention to only those operators:

Operators
and
or
= (equal)
>= (greater than or equal)
<= (less than or equal)
!= (not equal)
=~ (is regex)
!~ (is not regex)
&& (and)
|| (or)
includes (must have leading and trailing space)
!includes (must have leading and trialing space)

but this one don't work for me... In found the other code in a old forum topic. In fact I don't understand also how the others following parameters work and in which case we are supposed to use it:

Below should work.

[cb:if user="#me" user_id<="0"]I am A GUEST.[/cb:if]

#me

User viewing (your self).

#displayed

User displayed (users profile you're viewing). Doesn't work anywhere but profile.

#displayedOrMe

Either/or depending on the situation.

Ok....

Can you reply to my other question related to a possible use of empty/not empty operator ?

thank

You'd just do !="" or ="". There's no operator specific to the value being empty.
