<h3>Key Features</h3>
<h3>Rule-Based Content Restriction</h3>
<p>Content Restriction based on:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Login Status</strong> (Logged in vs logged out users)</li>
<li><strong>WordPress user roles</strong> (Administrator, Editor, Author, etc.)</li>
<li>Combined conditions using AND logic</li>
</ul>
<p>Create rules using a simple IF <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> THEN logic. Some examples:</p>
<ul>
<li>IF user is “Logged In” <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> access page A, B and C (logged out user cannot access A, B and C)</li>
<li>IF user role is “subscriber” or “editor” <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> can access page A, B and C (Contributor cannot access pages)</li>
<li>IF user is “Logged In” and role is “Author” <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> can access page A, B and C (Others will see content restriction message)</li>
</ul>
<h3>Apply Rules to Your Content</h3>

<ul>
