How can I determine if a user is logged in on my Job Board website in Webflow? Currently, I am unable to display the name or email of the logged-in user. Is there a membership function like "isLoggedInUser()" or something similar that I can use?

Webflow does not provide a built-in method like isLoggedInUser() to check user login status or directly display dynamic user data like name or email in custom code. However, if you're using Webflow Memberships, you can determine login status and personalize content using built-in Webflow features.

1. Use Webflow Memberships' Conditional Visibility

• Webflow Memberships includes support for gating content based on log-in state.
• On any Element or Section, use Conditional Visibility settings:
• Set visibility condition to “Current User is Logged In” or “Current User is Logged Out”.
• This allows you to show/hide parts of the website depending on the user’s status.

2. Displaying Logged-In User Name or Email

• Webflow does not yet support dynamic text bindings to display the user’s name or email from its memberships feature.
• Currently, there's no way to inject current user data like currentUser.email using Webflow-native features.

3. Custom Solutions with Third-Party Tools

• To get around Webflow's limitations, you’ll need to:
• Use a third-party authentication tool like Memberstack, Outseta, or Firebase.
• These tools often expose a JavaScript API where you can check if a user is logged in and get their user data.

Examples of common functions (depending on the platform):

• Memberstack: MemberStack.onReady.then(({ member }) => { /* check login */ });
• Outseta: Outseta.user().then(user => { /* use user.email or user.firstName */ });

You can then dynamically insert the user name/email in custom code elements like Webflow embeds using these APIs.

4. Custom Code Limitations in Webflow

• Webflow offers an "Embed" element for custom scripts and HTML, but:
• You must use client-side JavaScript only.
• There is no official Webflow API to fetch logged-in user data.

Summary

Webflow's native Memberships feature only supports showing/hiding elements based on user login status, not retrieving the user’s name or email. To access user-specific data or use functions like isLoggedInUser(), you’ll need to use a third-party member system like Memberstack or Outseta, which provide JavaScript APIs to detect login state and fetch user details.
