You can install Nickelled via PHP easily, by adding a conditional tag which listens for a PHP user ID.
1) Head to your Nickelled account at https://app.nickelled.com/
2) Click 'Settings' to open your account settings:
3) Click 'Sites' to open your sites:
4) Open the site you want to install your Flows on. Then, click 'View code snippet' to get your javascript snippet:
5) In your PHP codebase, add a conditional block which fires only if a user ID is detected.
For Wordpress, which has a built-in get_current_user_id function, this will look something like:
<?php if ( get_current_user_id() ) : ?>
// content goes here
<?php endif; ?>
For other frameworks, you probably want to call a helper method to check whether the user is logged in and has an ID:
<?php if (!empty($iCurrentlyLoggedInMemberId)): ?>
// content goes here
<?php endif; ?>
6) Inside your conditional block, add the Nickelled Flows code:
<script type="text/javascript">
(function () {
var NickelledLaunchers = window.NickelledLaunchers = NickelledLaunchers || { setUser: function (u) { this.userData = u } };
NickelledLaunchers.userData = {
appId: "YOUR_NICKELLED_APP_ID",
userId: "{{ USER_IDENTIFIER }}"
}
var s = document.createElement("script");
s.async = true;
s.src = "https://cdn.nickelled.com/launchers-2.min.js";
var f = document.getElementsByTagName("script")[0];
f.parentNode.insertBefore(s, f);
})();
</script>
Note that you'll need to tweak this code to ensure you're passing the correct Nickelled app ID (we've added the placeholder YOUR_NICKELLED_APP_ID in the code above).
7) Finally, add a PHP function to pass in the userId.
Your specific function will vary. In Wordpress, it's a fairly simple line:
<?php echo get_current_user_id(); ?>
This means your entire snippet will look something like:
<?php if ( get_current_user_id() ) : ?>
<script type="text/javascript">
(function () {
var NickelledLaunchers = window.NickelledLaunchers = NickelledLaunchers || { setUser: function (u) { this.userData = u } };
NickelledLaunchers.userData = {
appId: "YOUR_NICKELLED_APP_ID",
userId: "<?php echo get_current_user_id(); ?>"
}
var s = document.createElement("script");
s.async = true;
s.src = "https://cdn.nickelled.com/launchers-2.min.js";
var f = document.getElementsByTagName("script")[0];
f.parentNode.insertBefore(s, f);
})();
</script>
<?php endif; ?>
8) Publish your code, either on a page, a theme page (for Wordpress) or a template.
Once it's live, you'll see that your site is marked 'Code Snippet Installed' in your Nickelled settings:
