Pages by User Role for WordPress

Are you involved in WordPress development or web design, particularly utilizing WordPress to craft websites for your clientele? Alternatively, are you someone who’s just getting started with WordPress?

Have you ever wished to conceal Pages, Posts, or Categories within your website’s menu? Perhaps you’ve wanted to limit access to specific content on your site. With Pages by User Role, you have the ability to apply Access Control to various aspects of WordPress, depending on the user’s assigned Role:

• Pages
• Posts
• Categories
• Custom Post Types introduced by third-party plugins
• Custom Taxonomies (introduced by third-party plugins)
• WooCommerce (Products and Shop)

We’ve streamlined this process for you with the Pages by User Roles plugin. Additionally, the plugin will exclude Pages, Posts, Custom Post Types, Categories, or Custom Taxonomies from appearing in search results and your blog roll. You can also choose to hide Pages and Categories from the menu when users are not logged in. Furthermore, you can specify a specific redirect URL for users who lack the necessary User Role.

This functionality extends to the custom menu feature integrated into WordPress, automatically hiding menu items associated with specific user Roles when users are not logged in.

Here’s a summary of the key features:

• Access the Pages by User Role Options Panel in the WordPress Settings menu.
• Options include setting a default redirect URL for users without access to a Page, Post, or Custom Post Type, enabling comment filtering, and redirecting to the login page.
• Support for WordPress User Roles and Custom User Roles.
• A “Panic option” in case you accidentally restrict access to a Custom Post Type.
• Enable Access Control for Custom Post Types and restrict access on the frontend based on User Role.
• Control access to the Access Control Metabox on Pages, Posts, and Custom Post Types by User Role.
• Restrict access to WooCommerce Products.
• Optionally revert Pages by User Role behavior to the backend instead of the original frontend.
