Role Based Content Restrictor

Role Based Content Restrictor allows you to restrict access to individual posts, pages, and custom post types based on user roles or login status — now with a simplified and intuitive interface.

Key Features

• Restrict content based on user roles
• Restrict content to logged-in users only
• Restrict content to logged-out users (visitors only)
• Set a custom redirect page per post
• Configure a global fallback redirect from plugin settings
• Clean radio-based UI to avoid conflicting settings
• Fully backward compatible with previous versions

Improved Restriction UI

The plugin now uses a single “Restriction Type” selector instead of multiple toggles:

• No Restriction
• Restrict access to this content for roles
• Restrict to Logged-in Users Only
• Restrict to Logged-out Users Only (Visitors Only)

Only relevant fields are shown based on the selected option, making configuration clearer and preventing conflicts.

Smart & Conflict-Free Logic

The plugin ensures consistent behavior with a clear priority system:

• Visitors Only → highest priority (logged-in users are redirected, except administrators)
• Logged-in Only → restricts access to authenticated users
• Role-based restriction → applies when selected

Visitors Only Behavior

When Visitors Only is enabled: – Logged-out users can access the content – Logged-in users are redirected to a selected page – If no page is selected, the plugin uses the post redirect or global fallback – Administrators are always allowed access

Backward Compatibility

Existing settings are fully preserved: – Older saved configurations are automatically mapped to the new interface – No data loss when switching between restriction types – Hidden fields are not submitted to prevent accidental overwrites
