If you are using Groups plugin by @itthinx to restrict content, and you want your users to enter a code to give them access to groups, this is a possible solution.
[php]
/*
Plugin Name: Groups Codes
Plugin URI: https://www.eggemplo.com
Description: Groups Codes
Author: Antonio Blanco
Version: 1.0
Author URI: https://www.eggemplo.com
*/
class Groups_Codes_Plugin {
/**
* This array contains the pairs: code => group_id
* You need to change it with your own codes and groups id.
*/
public static $codes_table = array(
‘0001’ => 1,
‘0010’ => 2,
‘0011’ => 3
);
public static function init() {
add_action( ‘init’, array( __CLASS__, ‘wp_init’ ) );
}
public static function wp_init() {
add_shortcode( ‘groups_codes’, array( __CLASS__, ‘groups_codes_shortcode’ ) );
add_shortcode( ‘groups-codes’, array( __CLASS__, ‘groups_codes_shortcode’ ) );
}
public static function groups_codes_shortcode( $atts, $content = null ) {
$codes_table = self::$codes_table;
In this case, we are going to extend the ‘vc_row’ element to apply the ‘groups_can’ and ‘groups_can_not’ Groups shortcodes.
Adjusting the Theme
By adding the following lines to your themes functions.php, this new property will show in the admin row settings popup.
[php]
vc_add_param("vc_row", array(
"type" => "textfield",
"group" => "Groups",
"class" => "",
"heading" => "groups_can",
"param_name" => "groups_can",
‘description’ => ‘The capability attribute is required and is used to indicate one or more capabilities separated by comma.’
));
vc_add_param("vc_row", array(
"type" => "textfield",
"group" => "Groups",
"class" => "",
"heading" => "groups_can_not",
"param_name" => "groups_can_not",
‘description’ => ‘The capability attribute is required and is used to indicate one or more capabilities separated by comma.’
));
[/php]
Now the Row element has two new attributes on the ‘Groups’ tab:
Each element within Visual Composer has its own template and these templates can be overruled using your own theme templates. In this case vc_row.php.
1.- Create a new folder “vc_templates” in your theme or child-theme.
2.- Copy vc_row.php from /wp-content/plugins/js_composer/includes/templates/shortcodes/ to your newly created folder.
3.- Now we are going to change this vc_row.php, this is the code that I propose:
Backup your WordPress installation files and database.
