Hide Footer Links From Logged Out Users

Shopify Plus

Hi there,

I’d like to hide footer links from those who are not logged in. Is there a way to make them only visible to logged in users?

This is definitely doable. The conditional logic can be a little tricky to get your head around—especially since liquid doesn’t provide much conrol over order of operations with and/or in if statements.

Here’s some potential speudo code showing how you might do it. This has not been tested so I am not 100% sure if it’s exactly right but hopefully it points you in the right direction.

{%- for link in menu.links -%}
{%- liquid
  assign show_link = true

  if link.handle == 'x' or link.handle == 'y' or link.handle == 'z'
    unless customer
      assign show_link = false
    endunless
  endif
-%}
{%- if show_link -%}
    <li>…</li>
{%- endif -%}
{%- endfor -}

You could also tighten it up to be like this but it’s a little harder to understand the code:

…
if customer == false and link.handle == 'x' or link.handle == 'y' or link.handle == 'z'
  assign show_link = false
endif
…
