## Descripción

**Hide This** provides a `[hide]` shortcode that lets you hide some parts of the
content from your posts and pages. You can easily manage inclusions and exclusions
for hidden content in three levels: absolute, groups and capabilities, and specific
user.

Maybe some part of your post should not be published yet? Or maybe you want to show
some specific parts of your content to a certain group or users, let’s say your 
logged in users or your clients? This plugin may be the solution you need.

It’s **very important** to note that the content wrapped within the shortcode won’t
even be printed as HTML. It will be really, really hidden. There are a lot of great
plugins that hide the content via CSS and Javascript, but this is not the case. 
If you want your content to not be visible, but still printed as HTML, you should
try one of those.

**Basic usage:**

    ```
    [hide]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

This example will hide that content for all the site visitors. But you can be more
specific by using attributes.

**Accepted attributes:**

 * **for:** (optional) your rules to hide content. You can use absolute rules (`
   all`, `none`, `[!]logged`), rules by roles and capabilities (`[!]{role}`, `[!]{
   role}:[!]{capability}`, `:[!]{capability}`), and rules by specific user (`userid:[!]{
   ID}`, `useremail:[!]{email}`, `username:[!]{username}`).
 * **exclude:** (optional) your rules to show the hidden content to some specific
   visitor/s. As in _for_, you can use absolute rules (`all`, `none`, `[!]logged`),
   rules by roles and capabilities (`[!]{role}`, `[!]{role}:[!]{capability}`, `:[!]{
   capability}`), and rules by specific user (`userid:[!]{ID}`, `useremail:[!]{email}`,`
   username:[!]{username}`).
 * **test:** (optional) for debugging purposes. The kind of output you expect. Accepts`
   content` and `empty`. Use it wisely, because it prints a message with the result
   of the test.

**Some useful examples:**

Hide your content to all visitors:

    ```
    [hide]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content to all visitors, except for a specific user:

    ```
    [hide for="all" exclude="username:foo"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content to all non-logged visitors:

    ```
    [hide for="!logged"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content to all logged in visitors:

    ```
    [hide for="logged"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content to all logged in visitors, except for a specific user:

    ```
    [hide for="logged" exclude="username:foo"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content for some specific role:

    ```
    [hide for="contributor"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content for two specific roles:

    ```
    [hide for="editor, contributor"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content for all visitors except for a specific role:

    ```
    [hide for="!administrator"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    [hide for="all" exclude="administrator"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content for all visitors except for two specific roles:

    ```
    [hide for="!administrator, !editor"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    [hide for="all" exclude="administrator, editor"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content for users with a specific role and a specific capability:

    ```
    [hide for="some_role:do_a_barrel_roll"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content for users with a specific role, not having a specific capability:

    ```
    [hide for="some_role:!do_a_barrel_roll"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content for users with a specific capability:

    ```
    [hide for=":do_a_barrel_roll"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content for a specific user by user name:

    ```
    [hide for="username:foo"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content for a specific user by user ID:

    ```
    [hide for="userid:42"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content for a specific user by user email:

    ```
    [hide for="useremail:foo@mail.com"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

Hide your content for everyone except for a specific user by user name:

    ```
    [hide for="username:!foo"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.[/hide]
    ```

You should get the idea by now. Notice how you can use `!` to deny values such as
login status, roles, capabilities and user values.

I’ve been using this for a couple of years, now on a number of sites. And, it works
fine in Wordpress 5. In fact, I’m currently using it on a site I’m developing in
Wordpress 5.2.2 using the OceanWP template and Elementor page builder. At first,
I used Hide This, but then switched to another solution because I thought HT to 
be a bit limited for certain options. One specific problem I was having with HT 
was trying to get the ! (not) operator to function as expected. I later came back
to HT because I considered it to be «less bad» than the other soution I had begun
using. However, once I really got into HT (again) I discovered the «for all» (with
exceptions) option. Now, I use the following syntax for everything: [hide for=»all»
exclude=(my list of exceptions, that is, the list of roles I WANT to be able to 
view the content)]. Now, THAT is powerful yet extremely flexible. This thing meets
ALL my needs. Don’t be afraid to give it a try…I think you’ll be glad you did.

Straightforward. If you ever need to hide some page contents, this is for you. I
use it often when I play with different ways of displaying information. No need 
to delete the original version, just hide it while working on new approaches.
