Introduction

The if_user_is_subscribed function allows you to check if the currently logged-in user has an active subscription to any subscription product in Aurora, and present different content to the user based on the result.

🚧
If the visitor is not logged in, then the visitor is assumed NOT to be a subscriber.

👍
This can be used to promote your subscriptions to users that doesn't already have them, or present content to users that does, i.e. present a subscriber with some 'pay-for' subscription section of the Store.

How to use this function

Example Aurora Template: templates/example.com/products/details.tpl.html

This construction should be used as follows:

{if_user_is_subscribed product_id="123"}

YOUR SUBSCRIBER CONTENT HERE...

{if_user_is_subscribed_else}

YOUR NON-SUBSCRIBER CONTENT HERE...

{/if_user_is_subscribed}

Parameters

Parameter	Values	Default	Description	Required?
product_id	Integer	N/A	The Internal ID Aurora uses to identify a subscription Product.	One of product_reference or product_id is required (not both).
product_reference	String	N/A	The Aurora Product Reference for the subscription product you wish to check.	One of product_reference or product_id is required (not both).

🚧
You may only provide the ID or Reference of a product that is actually configured to be a Subscription product. If you do not, then the content block will not work and instead it will fail silently.
Note: You can use the Smarty Debug Toolbar provided under Smarty 3 in Aurora to view errors reported when this occurs.
