A complete content restriction toolkit for WordPress, designed to stay out of your way.
Restrict any post, page or custom post type individually or in bulk - including every post in a category, with a single rule.
Tease the intro, lock the rest. Restrict only a part of any page or post and let visitors see exactly why it is worth unlocking.
Automatically generated shortcodes restrict any slice of content, and a login form shortcode lets members sign in from anywhere on your site.
Show or hide any menu item or WordPress widget based on who is looking - each one with its own visibility criteria.
Sell access to premium content with WooCommerce, Tickera or Easy Digital Downloads and turn your site into a paywall or a membership business.
No redesign, no lock-in. Restrict plugs into the WordPress site you already have - and keeps working when you change themes.
How It Works
Add Restrict to your WordPress site like any other plugin. No code, no complicated setup - it works with your theme out of the box.
Pick posts, pages, categories, parts of content, menu items or widgets - and set the restriction rules that fit your site.
Open the gates to logged-in users, specific roles - or sell access through WooCommerce and let your content pay for itself.
