Display Link To Only Specific Role/Capability?

    *Is there a way to display links by specific role or capabilities?*

    https://www.floridaicam.com/

    I have made user levels with User Role Editor

    I gave user role ‘Year1’ privileges to read and level_0 and ‘Year2’ privileges to read and level_1

    I’m using User Login Widget and I have edited the log out section to show links.

    I want to show different links to users at that specific role.

    This is the code where the links appear

    }else{

	        global $userdata;

	        if(isset($before_title)) echo $before_title;

	    	echo "Welcome : ". $userdata->display_name;

	        if(isset($after_title)) echo $after_title;

		?>

<form name="logoutform" id="logoutform" action="<?php echo site_url('wp-login.php?action=logout&redirect_to='.site_url('/index.php'), 'logout_post') ?>" method="post">

	<ul><li><a href="https://www.floridaicam.org/student-access">myFICAM</a></li>

<li><a href="https://www.floridaicam.com/calendar">Academic Calender</a></li>
<br><br>
	<li><a href="<?php echo wp_logout_url(site_url('index.php'));?>">LogOut</a></li></ul>

</form>

    and this is the code I tried inserting where the break tags are but it shot out an error. 

    <?php
if ( current_user_can( 'level_0' ) ) { ?>
link
<?php } ?>

    ended up using, 

    <?php
if(current_user_can('level_0')) : ?>
<div class="messages">
level 0 content
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

<?php
if(current_user_can('level_1')) : ?>
<div class="messages">
level 0 content
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

    i used your code but it did not work…did you get a workaround ?

    works fine, you will need user role editor to make user roles with just the levels you want, for example I made one with level_0 and level_1 as I only have 2 different types of roles. screenshot

    i’m working on plug-in for this to make user roles easily and shortcodes.

    <?php
if(current_user_can('level_0')) : ?>
level 0 content for user role 1
<?php endif; ?>

<?php
if(current_user_can('level_1')) : ?>
level 1 content for user role 2
<?php endif; ?>
