Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Restrict User Access - Ultimate Membership & Content Protection
Restrict User Access has built-in lockout prevention. All administrators will by default have access to all content regardless of the Access Levels you create. If the plugin is deactivated, any restricted content will become accessible to everyone again; Restrict User Access does not permanently alter Roles or Capabilities in any way.
Go to User Access > Add New Click on the "New condition group" dropdown to add a condition Click on the created input field and select the content you want to restrict Go to the Members tab to add users who should have access the restricted content Go to the Options tab to set the Non-Member Action and other options Give your new level a descriptive title and save it Tips In order to restrict a context, e.g. "All Posts with Category X", simply select a new type of content from the dropdown below the AND label and repeat Step 3.
You can change this behavior from the Options tab by toggling "Deny Access to Unprotected Content" to ON. With this option enabled, members can only visit the pages selected as Access Conditions. To prevent lockout, Administrators will have access to all content regardless of your levels.
By default, Access Conditions do not apply to items in archive pages, search results, widgets, WP REST API, or custom lists. Learn more about how to completely hide content here.
Restrict User Access does currently not support restricting deep links to files, only attachment urls.
Capabilities and Access Conditions serve different purposes and are not combined. Access Conditions are applied only to the frontend, while capabilities work throughout the site (both Admin Dashboard and frontend).
You can report security bugs through the Patchstack Vulnerability Disclosure Program. The Patchstack team help validate, triage and handle any security vulnerabilities. Report a security vulnerability.
