Checking is user author of number of posts?

I have this function...



$user = wp_get_current_user();
if (( in_category('Locked') ) && in_array( 'subscriber', (array) $user->roles ) ) {
/* Is subscriber, is in category Locked, has amount of posts */
echo do_shortcode('[shortcode_name]');

} else if (( in_category('Locked') ) && in_array( 'subscriber', (array) $user->roles ) ) {
/* Is subscriber, is in category Locked, has NO amount of posts */
echo '<div id="locked">
You are subscriber without number of posts!
</div>';

} else if ( in_category('Locked') ) {
/* Is NOT subscriber, is in category Locked, has NO amount of posts */
echo '<div id="locked">
Login or register pal!
</div>';

} else {
/* Is NOT subscriber, is NOT in category Locked, has NO amount of posts */
echo do_shortcode('[shortcode_name]');
}


I need to apply "has amount of posts" or "check if user is author of numebr of posts" on first part of code...



if (( in_category('Locked') ) && in_array( 'subscriber', (array) $user->roles ) ) && ?????


If this way can't work, I would have one more possible solution, it is to auto move user from subscriber to contributor once subscriber posted number of posts, but this first solution would be better.

          I guess count_user_posts is what you're looking for ;)



          This is how you use it:



          $user_post_count = count_user_posts( $userid , $post_type );


          And it returns the number of published posts the user has written in this post type.



          PS. And if you want some more advanced count, get_posts_by_author_sql can come quite handy.

          • Thank you. Where do I put number of posts I want for the user to be able to see the content? For example I want user to add 5 posts before posts from category Locked become visible to him.
