# Conditional Display Logic

Are you in search of a practical widget management solution for your WordPress website? Look no further than our Widget Options plugin, designed to give you precise control over widget visibility using WordPress PHP conditional tags.

## **Key Features:**

1. **Conditional Visibility:** Customize widget visibility using PHP conditional logic functions, allowing you to tailor widget display based on specific conditions.
2. **Custom Conditions:** Manage widgets effortlessly by applying custom conditions created through themes or other plugins, giving you the flexibility to control widget behavior according to your needs.
3. **Security Measures:** It's essential to note that content EVALs directly, similar to the Widget Logic Plugin. To address any security concerns, we've introduced optional filters called **extended_widget_options_logic_override**. These filters provide flexibility to enhance security and peace of mind by overriding content.

### Here are a couple of examples of how it can be used:

1. If you want to display information exclusively on tag pages, you can do so by using ***`is_tag('your_tag')`*** to display content on "**your_tag**" tag archive page.
2. If you wish to display a widget on multiple pages that have the word "**Bangkok**" in their slugs, you can use `strrpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], 'bangkok')` to display the widget on posts or pages with "**bangkok**" in their slug or URL.
3. If you want to show or hide using the display logic with an ACF field, you can use
   ***`isset(get_field("field_name")) && get_field("field_name") == '1'`***
4. If you are using BuddyBoss and want to show the widget only on your profile, you can use
   ***`is_user_logged_in()&&( get_current_user_id() === bp_displayed_user_id() )`***
5. If you are using BuddyBoss and want to show the widget on the other profile, you can use
   ***`is_user_logged_in()&&( get_current_user_id() !== bp_displayed_user_id() )`***

### To use conditional tags in Display Logic, follow these steps:

**Step 1:** Make sure to enable the "Display Logic" feature from the Widget Options settings.

**Step 2:** Go to "Appearance" > "Widgets" and navigate to widget you intend to use the conditional logic.

**Step 3:** Then hover to Widget Options tabs, click on magnifier glass tab and then click the **Logic** tab, input your preferred conditional tags. You can also explore our [WP Conditional tags](https://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags) for more examples.

**Step 4:** Remember to save your changes by clicking the 'Save' button on the widget.

## **Display Logic Alternative**

Widget Options has alternative feature called **Slug Keyword Filter** and **URL & Wildcards Restrictions**.

### Slug Keyword Filter

This feature allows you to filter multiple pages based on keywords found in their slugs, separated by commas. It's a handy tool for those who want to display widgets on pages with specific keywords in their URLs.

### URL & Wildcards Restrictions

This feature will give you option to target specific URL to show or hide any widgets. You can use `*` as wildcard url, for example `sample-page/*` to target all subpages of "sample-page".
