Restrictly™ delivers professional-grade access control without compromising your site’s speed or reliability. 
It enforces rule-based visibility across pages, posts, menus, Full Site Editing (FSE) blocks, search results, and REST API responses, while maintaining full compatibility with themes and page builders.
In the free version, access rules are driven by user roles and login status, providing a clean and reliable foundation for content and navigation control.
Includes Extended Visibility Filtering, which automatically hides restricted content from search results, archives, and public listings.

<h3>Usage</h3>
<h4>Restricting Content</h4>
Restrictly™ lets you limit access to any page or post using intuitive controls: 
– Login-Based Restrictions – Limit visibility to Logged-In or Logged-Out users. 
– Role-Based Restrictions – Allow access only to specific user roles. 
– Enforcement Actions – Display a custom message or redirect unauthorized users. 
– Administrator Override – Admins can always access restricted content when enabled.
<h4>Restricting Blocks (FSE)</h4>
Restrictly™ integrates directly with the WordPress Site Editor (FSE) to provide per-block visibility: 
– Choose Everyone, Logged-In, Logged-Out, or Specific Roles. 
– Instantly preview restrictions using colored visibility indicators. 
– Restrictions are enforced server-side for full security and consistency.
<h4>Restricting Navigation (FSE Menus)</h4>
Restrictly™ also controls FSE Navigation menu visibility: 
– Show or hide individual links, submenus, and page lists by login status or role. 
– Works natively inside the block-based Navigation editor.
<h4>REST API Enforcement</h4>
Restrictly™ applies identical access logic to REST API endpoints. 
Unauthorized users see redacted content instead of restricted data — ensuring privacy across your site.
<h4>Search & Archive Filtering</h4>
Restricted content is automatically excluded from: 
– Search results 
– Category, Tag, and Author archives 
– Home and custom queries
<h4>Restricting Menu Items (Classic Menus)</h4>
<ul>
<li>Login-Based Visibility – Show menu items only to Logged-In or Logged-Out users.</li>
<li>Role-Based Visibility – Display menu items only to selected roles.</li>
<li>Conflict Detection – Highlights mismatched menu vs. page restrictions for easy correction.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Privacy</h3>
Restrictly™ does not collect user data, track activity, or transmit information externally.
