Beskrivning
Private Content provides a shortcode to display a small portion of a post content only to users of a specific role. For example, you can show the hidden text to Editors or to Authors or to any other WordPress role, even a custom role.
Private Content is not intended to be used as a membership plugin management, but instead it should be used to show small parts of a post only to certain users or roles.
For a comprehensive explanation, please see the official Wiki on GitHub. The text of the Wiki is also available as a PDF, that you can download from here.

This plugin is not intended to be used in such way, but only in order to display a portion of a post to certain readers. Also, the hidden text must remain hidden, without the presence of an alternate text that could reveal the presence of the hidden text. Anyway, as of version 2.2, the plugin can display an alternate text, if it’s necessary: you can use the
altoption to do that. You can find more information in the Wiki page.Also, this plugin was created only to show a small piece of text (i.e. a couple of lines) as a note to the post for particular readers.
If you need to show the entire post only to certain readers (i.e. readers who pay to read a post), you can use a plugin like Members.
