I need to use an old school method for this particular project so I wonder if it’s possible to only have a landing or splash page appear on the home page with no other options, including the footer. It would resemble Zoosk or Match in that only a registration or search form is present upon visiting the site. Once logged in users are redirected to their BuddyPress profiles and when Home is clicked they see a different layout which would be similar to the one in the demo.
Is it also possible to have rotating images on the home landing or splash page?

Awesome theme!

Any thoughts to adding a showcase?

Hi,
I am thinking that you could have two pages and use this plugin to show one or another in the menu: http://wordpress.org/plugins/menu-items-visibility-control/

(though i’m not sure whether this conflicts with the theme or not)

REVISIT:
I’m back on this project and still no luck in hiding footers on the home page for non-registered users?
I tried the article and realize that I don’t want heavy coding for this particular need as there should be a way to create a page which doesn’t contain the footers. All this page needs is the slider, register/search form, and space for text if needed.

Hi nusolutions, You need to edit footer.php and add some php conditions in there to check if the user is logged in, example:

<?php if (is_user_logged_in()) { ?> Content to hide <?php } ?>

You should really hire a developer to help you with custom changes.

Hi joninhas, For the register form in homepage you have this shortcode: [kleo_register_form]
Attributes available:
profiles=”1|0″ – show/hide the recent profiles underneath
title=”Title…”
details=”Extra details here …”

For the login form there is no shortcode for a form but you should check wordpress default login form: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_login_form

I don’t need no stinkin’ developer! 🙂

I managed to figure it out by using the for guests shortcode, widget logic plugin, and another plugin called menu item visibility control to hide certain menu links. In addition I decided to keep the footer widgets. See here: http://singleryders.com

My one remaining challenge is this:
A user logs in and they’re re-directed to their profile. Instead of seeing Home they now see Welcome instead. The Welcome page provides the different experience I was seeking. All is well except if they click the logo it takes them back to the home page which at this point contains nothing. In addition the Home link dispays in the breadcrumb. So instead of trying to make the Home page look like the Welcome page I think I’d prefer to hide it completely for logged in users.
Is this possible or do you still recommend I hire a developer? 😐 :-/ 🙂

thanks

You can hide the breadcrumb Home with the css if you do not want to go into coding:
COPY CODE
```
.trail-begin {display: none;}
```
Editing header.php you will find the logo and the link which is generated by the php function: get_home_url(). You can change that to match your needs

Revisit. Revisit. I see where the ability to enable/disable Breadcrumbs was added so thanks for that! In regards to the logo image I see and locate this inside of header.php:
COPY CODE
```

				<div class="four columns">
					<h1 id="logo"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?>
						<a>"><img />" width="294" height="108" alt="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>"></a>
					</h1>
				</div>
				

In my search I come across this: 

<?php
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {

} else {
    <a href="http://yoursite.com">Sign Up</a>
};
?>

What I find is that I can simply remove: 

<a>"> 
```
and the image is simply not clickable! Done!

What I’d like to know if it’s possible to have the image to link to a different URL depending on whether the user is logged in or not?

Sorry! I forgot to add the code within the brackets.

You should do something like
COPY CODE
```
<?php
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
?>
<a href="http://yoursite.com/forloggedin" rel="nofollow">Sign Up</a>
<?php
} else {
?>
    <a href="http://yoursite.com" rel="nofollow">Sign Up</a>
<?php
};
?>
```

So I’m looking at this code:
COPY CODE
```

				<div class="four columns">
					<h1 id="logo"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?>
						<img id="logo_img" src="<?php echo sq_option('logo',get_template_directory_uri().'/assets/images/logo.png'); ?>" width="294" height="108" alt="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>"></a>
					</h1>
				</div>
				
```
I don’t see where to add this as I’m talking about the site logo and having it point to the correct page. So if clicked while logged in it points to the welcome page, which has a different layout, http://mysite.com/welcome. If not logged in when clicked the logo points to the Home page. The way I have it right now the image isn’t linked or clickable.

thanks

I need the same thing. Making the logo redirect to one part of my site when a user is logged in and another when he/she is not.

Did you figure out where the code should go nusolutions?

Hi, you need to edit header.php and around line 20 you should see the logo image that should be modified like this and change the links accordingly to your needs:
COPY CODE
```
<?php
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
?>
<a href="<?php echo get_home_url(); ?>"><img id="logo_img" src="<?php echo sq_option('logo',get_template_directory_uri().'/assets/images/logo.png'); ?>" width="294" height="108" alt="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>"></a>
<?php
} else {
?>
<a href="<?php echo get_home_url(); ?>"><img id="logo_img" src="<?php echo sq_option('logo',get_template_directory_uri().'/assets/images/logo.png'); ?>" width="294" height="108" alt="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>"></a>
<?php
};
?>
```

Line 20 for me shows <head> and line 116 shows logo as so:
COPY CODE
```

				<div class="four columns">
					<h1 id="logo"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?>
						<img id="logo_img" src="<?php echo sq_option('logo',get_template_directory_uri().'/assets/images/logo.png'); ?>" width="294" height="108" alt="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>"></a>
					</h1>
				</div>
				
```
And end up with the following:
COPY CODE
```

				<div class="four columns">
					<h1 id="logo"><?php
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
?>
<a href="http://singleryders.com/welcome/"><img id="logo_img" src="<?php echo sq_option('logo',get_template_directory_uri().'/assets/images/logo.png'); ?>" width="294" height="108" alt="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>"></a>
<?php
} else {
?>
<a href="<?php echo get_home_url(); ?>"><img id="logo_img" src="<?php echo sq_option('logo',get_template_directory_uri().'/assets/images/logo.png'); ?>" width="294" height="108" alt="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?>"></a>
<?php
};
?></a>
					</h1>
				</div>
				
```
BAM!
BAM!
BAM! BAM! BAM!

It works!!!
Awesome! Awesome Indeed!
