Magento – Check if a User is logged in

February 23, 2010 by rcastera 6 Comments

You may want to check if a user is logged in with Magento, possibly to display a link or promotional item. Here’s how to do it:

<?php
if ($this->helper('customer')->isLoggedIn()) {
    echo("Anonymous user");
}
else {
    echo("Authenticated user");
}
?>

<?php

if ($this->helper('customer')->isLoggedIn()) {

echo("Anonymous user");

}

else {

echo("Authenticated user");

}

I bow down humbly in the presence of such gretanses.

I don’t work with that framework but I think your source code is wrong… actually you need to swap the ‘echo’ callings.
