post author’s user role
-
Hello Aldo,
since your plugin works great on restricting content based on user roles OR based on the fact that a user is also the post author…
could you please also add a new feature so that it can be restricted based on the POST AUTHOR’s USER ROLE?
I mean the hidden content should be visible to anybody ONLY IF the post author belongs to a specific user role.
So, for example, if the author of this post is an Administrator, then show the hidden text to every user/visitor of that post. Something like
[private role=”post-author-administrator”]Text for everybody[/private]Basically it works as default but checks the post author’s user role instead of the current user’s role.

I just added the new option
post-author-customto be used along withcustom_roleoption.For example:
[private role="post-author-custom" custom_role="marketing" alt="Alternate text."]Hidden text.[/private]Replace
marketingwith one of your roles.The hidden text will be publicly shown if the author of the post has the role defined in
custom_role.The new option is not yet released to the public, but you can download it from here for testing purposes:
https://github.com/aldolat/private-content/archive/refs/heads/develop.zipDecompress the file and replace only the file
private-content-develop/includes/class-ubn-private.php. The other files are unchanged.Please test it and tell me if all works as expected.
Please, let me know.
