Question 166214 in Wordpress Question posted in
The official Wordpress documentation can be found here.

Should logged in & non logged in users see different messages on a particular post type in WordPress?

I have a question-answer plugin installed so the post type is example.com/question/
I want to show the message just below the post content
it should say "Login or Register" to non logged in users
and welcome to logged-in users

    You’re looking for is_user_logged_in();

    Determines whether the current visitor is a logged in user.

    <?php

if ( 'question' === get_post_type() ) {

  if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) {

    echo 'An account is required.';
  
  } else {
  
    // ...
  
  };

};

    Try adding this code to your theme where applicable:

    if (is_user_logged_in()) {
    $current_user = wp_get_current_user();
    echo 'Welcome ' . esc_html($current_user->display_name);
} else {
    // Save current page url for redirect after login (optional):
    global $wp;
    $redirect = home_url($wp->request);

    echo '<a href="' . esc_url(wp_login_url($redirect)) . '">Login or Register</a>';
}

    Also: WordPress has a native function for that – wp_loginout():
    https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_loginout/
    It won’t show the welcome message off the box, but will give logged in users the option to log out instead.
