Geolocator

Beskrywing

Get website visitor’s location based on IP address and show/hide specific content depending on country.

You can hide post for particular country by filling “Hide for” field in custom meta box in post’s edit screen. That way the post will not be included to the loop and other parts of the website.

Shortcodes

The shortcode accepts “for” attribute. It should be a 2-letter ISO code of the country you want to show the content for.

Hide

[geolocator_hide for="US"]This information is NOT being shown to visitors from United States.[/geolocator_hide]

This plugin relies on data from a third party. That third party says they discontinued the data on 2 January 2019. A pity: it looked quite good.
