Hiding contents - Part 1

Scenario

You want to display part of a post or page content only to users who scanned a QR code image.

Solution

Click on the QR-Codes menu item in the plugin

Click the button to create a new empty QR-Code

Fill in the required fields:

Description: enter an descriptive or mnemonic name for the QR-Code
Key: enter a sequence of characters
Redirect URL: select the target post or page

Save the QR-Code in the database.

Click on the Enhanced QR code tab

Click the button to create the enhanced version of the QR code image

In the Shortcode for content hiding field, click the icon button to copy the example to the clipboard (note: the number 33 is just an example).

Paste the copied shortcode into the post or page content.

Modify the inner content of the shortcode to match what you want to display.

Form

If the page or post contains a form, you need to add the attribute form=1 to the shortcode:

[dynqrcode auth=33 form=1] ... [/dynqrcode]

If you have selected "Request method and custom field in form" in the Form check mode under Settings, you have also to add an hidden HTML input filed to the form:

<input type="hidden" name="dynqrcode_auth" value="33">

You can find the copy-and-paste HTML code in the QR-Code Edit page.

This way...

users who scanned the QR code enhanced image will see the content enclosed in the shortcode.

To improve the security, enable the QR code scanning only to MyFast APP applications.

How to use the standard image

If you wish to use the standard version of the QR code image you need to check the Enable content hiding with standard QR code image option of the Settings page.

Warning
