Showdown content if current user..

Hi there! Thank you for this amazing plugin!

I use the calendar plugin from http://tri.be/ on a worpress website for a private website (it’s like an intranet..).

On this calendar I put all the planned meetings, but I would like that the current logged in user can see only the events he/she is supposed to join.

I thought that I can create a custom field, named, for example, “mustjoin” and put there a list of registered usernames as values.
Then do a check on the page.
If the current logged in username is in that list, he/she can see the event on the calendar.. otherwise not.

Something like :

 if ( $current_user->user_login =='get_field(mustjoin)') { ?>
...html...
<?php } else { ?>
...html 2...<?php } ?>

It doesn’t work. 🙂 Well.. no errors at least.. but no changes. Everybody can see the event.

This is the part of the code I need to show IF the current user username is in the value list ‘mustjoin’

<?php while ($day['events']->have_posts()) : $day['events']->the_post() ?>
<?php tribe_get_template_part('month/single', 'event') ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>

Really thank you for your help.
Gio.

function searchForName($name, $array) {
   foreach ($array as $key => $val) {
       if ($val['nickname'] === $name) {
           return true;
       }
   }
   return null;
}
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
if(searchForName($current_user->user_login,get_field('YourACFUserField'))):
	//CODE GOES HERE
endif;

something like that

Hi VoiD2008, thank you for your reply.

Unfortunately it doesn’t work, and my php knowledge is not good enough to fix it.
I should insert a control to check if the array exists or not I think..

If I use this code, that works only with one username in that field,

<?php  
global $current_user;
get_currentuserinfo();

if ($current_user->user_login == 'get_field(mustjoin)') { ?>
	<?php while ($day['events']->have_posts()) : $day['events']->the_post() ?>
<?php tribe_get_template_part('month/single', 'event') ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
		<?php } ?>

Everything works.

Of course, with two usernames in the field, it doesn’t. But I don’t receive an error.. it just works as it should, because it checks for an username made by the 1st+2nd usernames together.
With a
var_dump( get_field('mustjoin') ); I receive this :
string(17) "User1 User2 User3"

Thank you for your help.

I guess thats because you are using simple text field for your userlist. But my code was written for UserSelect ACF field
That returns an array of user objects

• VoiD2008

But we can upgrade your code =))

<?php  
global $current_user;
get_currentuserinfo();

if (in_array(explode(' ',get_field('mustjoin')),$current_user->user_login)) { ?>
	<?php while ($day['events']->have_posts()) : $day['events']->the_post() ?>
<?php tribe_get_template_part('month/single', 'event') ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
		<?php } ?>

Hi there! Thank for your suggestion, but it doesn’t work yet.

If I use the code you wrote above, I receive an error, which tells me that the second parameter should be an array for the script..

Because it is a string, I have ended up using this code :

<?php $current_user = wp_get_current_user(); ?>
<?php global $user_login;
      get_currentuserinfo(); ?>
<?php $lookforuser = get_field('mustjoin') ?>
<?php if (strpos($lookforuser, $user_login) !== false) { ?>
    <?php while ($day['events']->have_posts()) : $day['events']->the_post() ?>
    <?php tribe_get_template_part('month/single', 'event') ?>
    <?php endwhile; ?>
<?php } ?>

And it works at 99.5%!
The problem is when I open the calendar page, I can’t see anything.. as soon as I manually refresh the page, all the events (where I am supposed to join) appear.
It seems it needs to re-collect the infos..
How can I fix it? (I tried with different computers/browsers, no changes..) Thank you.

can you post a link to your project?

• demongib

• August 31, 2014 at 3:27 am

Unfortunately it is for an intranet, and because is still underwork for the content I can’t..

But if you want more information, I can run all the test you may need, and post the results here.

Thank you

thats strange that you not see your events without refreshing
try to dump your var

global $user_login; var_dump($day['events']);

or maybe you have some javascripts that works with you data? and you placed them in wrong place

• demongib

• August 31, 2014 at 3:50 am

If I use that dump, I receive an insane long reply from the page..
Especially for the days where there is a meeting planned.
Without refreshing of course.

As soon as I refresh the page, I have the same dump + the event.
that’s weird.. :/

do you want me to post it ?

Thank you.

• VoiD2008

• August 31, 2014 at 3:54 am

No I don’t need that dump. I just was interested in information about the var is not NULL when you calling page first time =)
Now try to dump your user field
<?php $lookforuser = get_field('mustjoin'); var_dump($lookforuser);var_dump(strpos($lookforuser, $user_login));?>

• VoiD2008

• August 31, 2014 at 3:58 am

and for checking if the error in next template
add this
<?php echo 'event exists<br/>';tribe_get_template_part('month/single', 'event') ?>

• demongib

• August 31, 2014 at 4:02 am

Ok then, I have added this now :

<?php $lookforuser = get_field('mustjoin'); var_dump($lookforuser);var_dump(strpos($lookforuser, $user_login));?>

And when I navigate to the page, I have this in ALL the days :
bool(false) bool(false)

As soon as I refresh :

string(17) "User1 User2 User3" int(0)
Even on the days where there are not meetings.

Now I will apply your second post and will post the differences.

• VoiD2008

• August 31, 2014 at 4:05 am

my second is not neccesary the bug is with get_field(‘mustjoin’);
it returns nothing first time… let me think =)))

• demongib

• August 31, 2014 at 4:06 am

if I use also the second snippet, I have for ALL days this

string(17) "User1 User2 User3" int(0) event exists + the events names.

without refreshing.

With refresh, same stuff + 2 times the events names on the day that the event is planned.

post plz all code from this template file… and it’s filename

• demongib

• August 31, 2014 at 4:10 am

Filename single-day.php

thats weird =)
where is your field mustjoin?
I mean in what post type?

• demongib

• August 31, 2014 at 4:42 am

Ahemm.. what do you mean exactly ?

I have the ACF ‘mustjoin’ in the page events for the plugin (you can also download the calendar, it’s free), then I’ve put the snippet between
<!– EDITED etc –> and <–view more–>

Sorry I have understood wrongly your reply. 😐

• VoiD2008

• August 31, 2014 at 4:50 am

so I guess you have to check if user must join in events loop
not in calendar

remove all my var_dump functions and change your code

<?php $current_user = wp_get_current_user(); ?>
<?php global $user_login;
      get_currentuserinfo(); ?>
<?php $lookforuser = get_field('mustjoin'); ?>
<?php if (strpos($lookforuser, $user_login) !== false) { ?>
    <?php while ($day['events']->have_posts()) : $day['events']->the_post() ?>
    <?php tribe_get_template_part('month/single', 'event') ?>
    <?php endwhile; ?>
<?php } ?>

to

<?php $current_user = wp_get_current_user(); ?>
<?php global $user_login;
      get_currentuserinfo(); ?>
<?php while ($day['events']->have_posts()) : $day['events']->the_post(); ?>
   <?php $lookforuser = get_field('mustjoin'); ?>
   <?php if (strpos($lookforuser, $user_login) !== false) 
         tribe_get_template_part('month/single', 'event'); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>

btw the line <?php $current_user = wp_get_current_user(); ?> is unnecessary
