<h3>Usage</h3>
<h4>Restricting Content</h4>
<p>Restrictly™ lets you limit access to any <strong>page</strong> or <strong>post</strong> using intuitive controls:<br />
– <strong>Login-Based Restrictions</strong> – Limit visibility to Logged-In or Logged-Out users.<br />
– <strong>Role-Based Restrictions</strong> – Allow access only to specific user roles.<br />
– <strong>Enforcement Actions</strong> – Display a custom message or redirect unauthorized users.<br />
– <strong>Administrator Override</strong> – Admins can always access restricted content when enabled.</p>
<h4>Restricting Blocks (FSE)</h4>
<p>Restrictly™ integrates directly with the WordPress Site Editor (FSE) to provide per-block visibility:<br />
– Choose <strong>Everyone</strong>, <strong>Logged-In</strong>, <strong>Logged-Out</strong>, or <strong>Specific Roles</strong>.<br />
– Instantly preview restrictions using colored visibility indicators.<br />
– Restrictions are enforced server-side for full security and consistency.</p>
<h4>Restricting Navigation (FSE Menus)</h4>
<p>Restrictly™ also controls FSE Navigation menu visibility:<br />
– Show or hide individual links, submenus, and page lists by login status or role.<br />
– Works natively inside the block-based Navigation editor.</p>
<h4>REST API Enforcement</h4>
<p>Restrictly™ applies identical access logic to REST API endpoints.<br />
Unauthorized users see redacted content instead of restricted data — ensuring privacy across your site.</p>
<h4>Search & Archive Filtering</h4>
<p>Restricted content is automatically excluded from:<br />
– <strong>Search results</strong><br />
– <strong>Category, Tag, and Author archives</strong><br />
– <strong>Home and custom queries</strong></p>

<ul>
<li><strong>Login-Based Visibility</strong> – Show menu items only to Logged-In or Logged-Out users.</li>
<li><strong>Role-Based Visibility</strong> – Display menu items only to selected roles.</li>
<li><strong>Conflict Detection</strong> – Highlights mismatched menu vs. page restrictions for easy correction.</li>
</ul>
