<p>Adds three widgets – “Text/List”, “Text/List (If Logged In)” and “Text/List (Not Logged In)”. These can be used much like the normal Text widget, except two of them only display if the condition is met.</p>
<p>Potential Uses:<br />
* Add a link to a Register page, along with some text promoting registration (for example on a site with the bbPress plugin)<br />
* Display adverts to users who are not logged in<br />
* Display useful links to users who are logged in.<br />
* Display a nice list to everyone.</p>
<p>Because the widgets are separate, you can have the logged-in widget in a different place to a logged-out widget. You don’t even have to have pairs of widgets.</p>
<p>Unlike the normal Text widget which just has a toggle for paragraph on/off, this widget has four display options:</p>
<ul>
<li>No formatting</li>
<li>Add paragraphs</li>
<li>Bullet list (ul)</li>
<li>Numbered list (ol)</li>
</ul>
<p>The list options are useful if you are adding a number of links – simply add each one on a new line and they’ll be turned into a bullet. Please note that this plugin adds no CSS. Often themes style the lists within a widget to make menus look nice, so your theme may (for example) prevent numbers from showing. See FAQ.</p>
<p>You may find that the Text/List widget is useful even without the logged-in / logged-out conditional.</p>


Logged In Conditional Text Widget

Adds text/list widgets - one only shows if user is logged in, and the other only shows if a user is not logged in. A third shows regardless.

<p>Widget Visibility Control lets you decide exactly where each widget appears on your site. Show widgets only on specific pages, hide them for logged-out users, display different content for different categories – all without writing a single line of code.</p>
<h4>Looking for Widget Visibility and Scheduling?</h4>
<p>This plugin gives you control over where your widgets appear:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Page targeting</strong> – Show widgets on the front page, blog page, specific pages, or 404 error page</li>
<li><strong>Content targeting</strong> – Display widgets only on certain categories, tags, or custom taxonomies</li>
<li><strong>Cascading taxonomy selector</strong> – Quickly find terms in sites with many taxonomies (WooCommerce friendly)</li>
<li><strong>Include child terms</strong> – Match child terms automatically for hierarchical taxonomies</li>
<li><strong>User targeting</strong> – Show different widgets to logged-in users vs. visitors</li>
<li><strong>Role-based display</strong> – Target specific user roles (administrators, editors, subscribers, etc.)</li>
<li><strong>Author pages</strong> – Control visibility on author archive pages</li>
<li><strong>Date archives</strong> – Target daily, monthly, or yearly archives</li>
