Showing "anycontent.php" to Unregistered Members / Guests

[pols1337]

Hi,

I'd like to use "anycontent.php" to show a message only to unregistered members / guests.  Can you suggest a coding for it? 

I've read http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,45673.msg217268.html#msg217268 but not sure if it applies, since I'm bridging from SMF2.0

Try this:

Code Select Expand

<?php
if (!USER_ID) {
  echo "YOUR MESSAGE";
}
?>

A more advanced question on how to replace YOUR MESSAGE ...

I'd like to say something like:

Welcome to Gallery!

(paragraph 1)Thank you for visiting.
(paragraph 2)You will need to log-in to send ecards, rate, comment, and download. 


I tried to simply copy and paste my HTML code inside the echo function ... that didn't go over so well

Please post the code you added, respectively your whole file content.

Hi Andre,

I would like the following message to only be shown to guests / unregistered visitors (copied from my anycontent.php):

Code Select Expand

</br>
<center>
<table id="Welcome to UOM Main Gallery" width="90%" border = "0">
<tr>
<td>
<p><center><h3>Welcome to the Main Gallery</h3></center></p>
<p>The UOM Main Gallery contains adult material.  You must read and agree to the <a href="http://universeofmen.com/index.php?action=kb;area=article;cont=71">Adult Warning</a> and <a href="http://universeofmen.com/index.php?action=kb;area=article;cont=70">User Agreement</a> before entering.  <br><br>The UOM Main Gallery is the flagship gallery of <a href="http://universeofmen.com/index.php">UniverseOfMen (UOM)</a>, a free gay website dedicated to showing the very best gay and homoerotic content from around the male universe. You may <a href="http://universeofmen.com/index.php?action=register">Register</a> for free to add comments, rate pictures, search albums, send ecards, and download.</p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</center>
</br>

Screenshot is attached.

As Joe already described, replace it with the following code:

Code Select Expand

if (!USER_ID) {
  echo '</br>
<center>
<table id="Welcome to UOM Main Gallery" width="90%" border = "0">
<tr>
<td>
<p><center><h3>Welcome to the Main Gallery</h3></center></p>
<p>The UOM Main Gallery contains adult material.  You must read and agree to the <a href="http://universeofmen.com/index.php?action=kb;area=article;cont=71">Adult Warning</a> and <a href="http://universeofmen.com/index.php?action=kb;area=article;cont=70">User Agreement</a> before entering.  <br><br>The UOM Main Gallery is the flagship gallery of <a href="http://universeofmen.com/index.php">UniverseOfMen (UOM)</a>, a free gay website dedicated to showing the very best gay and homoerotic content from around the male universe. You may <a href="http://universeofmen.com/index.php?action=register">Register</a> for free to add comments, rate pictures, search albums, send ecards, and download.</p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</center>
</br>';
}

Resolved -- thanks.

For those of you who might be searching in the future, there are some tweaks to both Andre's and Joe's suggestions:

Code Select Expand

<?php
if (!USER_ID) {
  echo 'YOUR MESSAGE';
}
?>

1.  Use single quotations instead of double
2.  Make sure you include the <?php> stuff
3.  If you use the single quotations, don't use apostrophes ' in your HTML or description or you'll get a parse error.
