User Registration Content Restriction Addon GPL v1.3.4

The User Registration Content Restriction Addon provides a way to control access to your WordPress content based on user roles and login status. This add-on allows you to restrict both full and partial content on pages and posts, making it easier to manage access to certain content based on user roles or login status.

Key Features of User Registration Content Restriction Addon:

1. Enable Content Restriction for Pages and Posts:
   • The add-on adds a content restriction section to each page and post in your WordPress site.
   • You can choose to restrict access to specific content on a page or post, making it available only to certain users.
2. Choose Specific Roles to Access Content:
   • You can set restrictions based on user roles. This allows you to control which user roles can access specific content, providing a flexible access control system.
   • For example, you can restrict certain content to premium members or subscribers only, while other content remains accessible to everyone.
3. Live Editing Panel:
   • The add-on offers a live editing panel, allowing you to preview the changes you make to the content restriction settings in real-time.
   • This feature ensures that you can see how your content will appear to users before you finalize the changes.
4. Shortcode for Restricting Partial Content:
   • You can restrict specific sections of content on a page or post using a simple shortcode.
   • This is ideal for creating “teaser” content where only part of the page or post is visible to users who do not meet the access criteria.
5. Show Custom Message to Restricted Users:
   • When a user is restricted from accessing certain content, you can display a custom message explaining why they cannot view the content.
   • This helps users understand the restriction and can guide them on how to gain access, such as by logging in or upgrading their membership.

Benefits of Using the User Registration Content Restriction Addon:

• Granular Content Control: You can restrict content at both the page/post level and the individual section level, giving you complete control over what users can see.
• Role-Based Access: The ability to restrict content based on user roles ensures that you can tailor the user experience to different types of visitors, such as members, subscribers, or guests.
• Improved User Experience: By showing custom messages to restricted users, you help manage expectations and provide clear instructions for gaining access to the content.
• Teaser Content: The ability to restrict partial content allows you to offer preview or teaser content, encouraging users to sign up or log in for full access.

Ideal Use Cases:

• Membership Sites: Perfect for membership websites where certain content is only available to paying members or specific member roles.
• Exclusive Content: Useful for sites offering exclusive content, such as premium blog posts, courses, or downloadable resources, where access needs to be controlled.
• Subscription-Based Websites: Ideal for subscription-based services where different levels of content access are granted based on the user’s subscription level.

The User Registration Content Restriction Addon is a powerful tool for managing content access on your WordPress site. Whether you need to restrict full content or just specific sections, this add-on provides the flexibility to control who sees what, improving both user engagement and content management.
