    Hi, Just setting up a new blog and we want to display the header and either the first couple of line of each blog or an excerpt to all users but only display the full articles to logged in users.

    Is this possible out of the box in Genesis, or do we need to do something extra?

    Thanks,
    Simon

    Not possible out of the box however you can use custom code to do this with the is_user_logged_in conditional tag.

    Are you referring to archive pages or all pages and posts?

    pages and posts Brad.

    We've now had someone build some custom code for us but are on the next stage of working out how to integrate this with the login page...!

    Interesting. Did you want to display a login form for logged out users on single posts and pages?

    I spent a couple of hours working on this solution.

    It limit the content to any character limit you set in the code on single posts and pages only for logged out users and displays a login form below the content limit for logged out users only. The full content is viewable for all logged in users.
