  • Support shortcode in the content
  • Use the conditional display shortcode in text widgets
  • PHP functions to detect mobile and browser

Usage

You can add shortcode [wonderplugin_cond] and [/wonderplugin_cond] around your content, then use the supported attributes to control whether to display the content.

Devices

The plugin supports two attributes: deviceinclude and deviceexclude. deviceinclude can be used to only show the content on the listed devices, deviceexclude can be used to hide the content on the listed devices.

The support devices include iPod, iPhone, iPad, iOS, Android, Mobile, Windows, Mac and Linux. You can specify multiple devices and seperate them with comma.

  • Please note, the device name Mobile includes all the following tablet and mobile devices: iPhone, iPad, iPod, Android mobile/tablets.
  • If you need to differentiate mobile and tablet devices, you can specify multiple devices and seperate them with comma, for example deviceinclude="iPhone,iPod,Android" or deviceinclude="iPad".
  • Currently, there is not a way to tell the difference between Android mobile and tablets.

Examples are as follows:

[wonderplugin_cond deviceinclude="Mobile"]
This content only shows on mobile and tablet devices.
[/wonderplugin_cond]]
[wonderplugin_cond deviceexclude="Mobile"]
This content will hide on mobile and tablets.
[/wonderplugin_cond]]
[wonderplugin_cond deviceexclude="iPhone,iPad"]
This content shows on all devices except iPhone and iPad.
[/wonderplugin_cond]]

Web Browsers

The plugin supports two attributes: browserinclude and browserexclude. browserinclude can be used to only show the content on the listed web browsers, browserexclude can be used to hide the content on the listed web browsers.

The support web browsers include Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Edge, Opera, IE6, IE7, IE8, IE9, IE10, IE11 and IE. You can specify multiple web browsers and seperate them with comma.

IE represents Internet Explorer 6/7/8/9/10/11 and does not include the latest Microsoft Edge.

Examples are as follows:

[wonderplugin_cond browserinclude="Chrome"]
This content only shows on Google Chrome.
[/wonderplugin_cond]
[wonderplugin_cond browserexclude="IE,Edge"]
This content shows on all web browsers except Internet Explorer 6/7/8/9/10/11 and Microsoft Edge.
[/wonderplugin_cond]

You can also combine device and web browser attributes. When multiple attributes are presented, it will hide the content when any of the excluding attributes are matched, and it will only show the content when all including attributes are matched.

[wonderplugin_cond deviceinclude="Mobile" browserinclude="Safari"]
This content only shows in Safari on a mobile device.
[/wonderplugin_cond]]
[wonderplugin_cond deviceexclude="Mobile" browserexclude="Chrome"]
This content will hide on mobile devices, it will also hide in Google Chrome on all devices.
[/wonderplugin_cond]
