Plugin: privatecontent-free (Used by 11 domains)

PrivateContent born in 2012, aiming to be the best solution to restrict your website contents and a different membership platform. Different because it uses a standalone database: quicker than the normal WordPress users one and not limited by the bulky roles assignments.

To have a multi-level users database will be easy and fast, keeping your users out of the WordPress backend while creating a modern and optimized users management area in the backend.

No forced pages, no forced URLs: the plugin is designed to seamlessly work and integrate into any website.

🌟 Main Features

• User levels: unlimited. Each user can have one or multiple levels
• Easy user management: Forget the outdated WP users management, everything is clean and fast. From admin user addition to users sort and search
• 3 user statuses: Users can be disabled without deleting them and registered users can be also placed in pending status, waiting for the admin approval
• Contents restrictions: restrict WP pages and posts in few clicks. Bulk restrict through post categories. Precisely define which user levels can access contents. Restricted elements will be totally unreachable, also for search engines
• User reserved page: target a container page and it will show different contents depending on the logged user. Everything under a single website URL!
• 1-click website lock: Do you need a totally private website? It only takes a click!
• Login and registration forms: Place them everywhere you want in your website: you will never have to change your desired workflow to adapt PrivateContent
• Registration form builder: add/remove/sort the fields as you prefer. Add text blocks and paginate fields. Finally, a modern HTML5 data validation and honeypot anti-spam
• Blocks and shortcodes: Quickly insert your forms into your website directly through WP blocks or using the shortcode wizard
• Import/export hub: Move users through websites, import existing WP users, export in CSV/XSLX, move the whole plugin setup
• Style it as you prefer: Choose among six message styles and tune every aesthetic aspect to fully integrate into your website

And even if it’s a free version, each system is packed with a lot of options.
Everything to adapt as best as possible to every website’s need!
