Require User to be [Role]

  1. I want to allow only logged in users of a certain role/capability to use a form. There is already "Require user to be logged in". I was hoping there might be something as simple as a filter I can hook to.

    Any ideas? I know I can do it a trickier way, I was hoping to do it real smooth like, without a whole bunch of shortcode logic.

  2. What if you used this: http://gravitywiz.com/dynamically-populating-user-role/

    And then relied on conditional logic to show/hide fields/submit button, etc

    You could put all of your form fields under a section break and apply conditional logic to that section break to show or hide and then you could add an HTML field that shows via conditional logic if they don't have rights to use the form.

  3. That's some pretty sharp thinking there. Thanks, that does the trick.

    Next, to write a registration form that also allows for "upgrading" the user role. This same logic should do it.
