This is plugin helped me to restrict the pages for non-logged in users without any custom code. It offers a lot of options like redirection, rules etc which is very helpful. This plugin saved my development time and energy. Thanks to the plugin team.

Content Control does the job for us and we have seen *none* of the issues being reported under support since v2.2.0. WP 6.4.3, PHP 8.1, Enfold theme 5.6.10, The Events Calendar 6.3.5. We received 8 updates for Content Control over the past 3 days, from which 4 in the past 24 hrs. I have disabled automatic updates for this plugin now. Please slow down and do more bêta testing with users that need cutting edge functionality.

v2.2.3 – 03/19/2024

  • Fix: Recurssion error with taxonomy queries due to calling setup_post during get_terms query. WooCommerce then setup global $product, which called another taxonomy query, and so on.
  • Fix: Bug when modified WP_Term_Query->terms arrays of ints were passed instead of epxected term objects.

v2.2.2 – 03/19/2024

  • Fix: Nav Menu Link user rule not working properly.

  • Tweak: Only show “Required Upgrade” notices to admins with plugin management permissions.
  • Dev:: Added new field type userselect for choosing users with search.

v2.1.0 – 12/08/2023

NOTE: Plugin now requires PHP 7.4+ & WP 6.2+. The plugin likely still works on older versions, but now only officialy support these versions and up.

  • Improvement: Preloaded plugin settings on admin pages to decrease delay before settings are available to JS. This should help settings not showing up in the editor when first loading the page.
  • Tweak: Changed 'content_control/get_block_control_classes' filter to include the $controls found in the block.
  • Tweak: Various style improvements to admin pages for consistency.
  • Fix: Typo in fetching of taxonomy labels for rule generation. This could have led to rule search results not being shown with proper labels (or empty labels).
  • Fix: Block scanner running for all users, not just admins, triggered AJAX events that were denied every time author entered block editor.
  • Fix: Styling issues with WP 6.4 checkbox changes.
  • Fix: Bug when filtering restrictions in the list view and no results remained, causing the filters to not work properly witoout a page refresh.
  • Developer: Core plugin class now is extendible to allow addons to get full access to plugin internals.
  • Developer: Added useFields api which will be used in future versions of the plugin to allow 3rd party plugins to add their own fields to the restriction editor.
  • Developer: Added multiple new components for field organization and layout: FieldRow, FieldPanel.
  • Developer: Added new 'content-control.data.registry' hook in JavaScript to allow addons to register their own data stores for use in the editor & settings pages.
  • Developer: Added new 'content_control/restriction/bypass_user_requirements' PHP filter to allow addons to bypass user requirements for more specific restrictions.

v2.0.12 – 10/26/2023

  • Fix: Prevent extra 301 redirect due to missing trailing slash on some URLs.
  • Fix: Issue with Custom Message replacement not always working on pages built with Elementor.

v2.0.11 – 10/04/2023

  • Improvement: Query Monitor integration to show which restrictions are active on a page.
    • Shows global settings that may be affecting the page.
    • Shows which restrictions are active on the page.
    • Shows which posts are being filtered out of queries and by which restriction.
  • Tweak: Ensure upgrade stream doesn’t send headers if they were already sent.
  • Tweak: Make second arg on get_the_excerpt filter optional to prevent errors with some plugins.
  • Fix: Bug when using content_control/check_all_restrictions filter that caused rules to not compare properly.

v2.0.10 – 10/01/2023

  • Improvement: If no v1 global restrictions existed, skip the migration step entirely.
  • Improvement: Default to late init of post query filtering until after plugins_loaded should be finished. This should prevent help prevent random errors due to restrictions being checked before plugins have had a chance to register their post types, and thus restrictions won’t properly match those post type rules.
  • Improvement: Add check to prevent restriction checks for WP CLI requests.
  • Improvement: Add notice to indicate is when waiting for post/page search results in the restriction editor fields.
  • Tweak: Fix issue in build that caused autoloader to not fully use optimized classmap, should result in improved performance.
  • Fix: Ensure $wp_rewrite is available before calling is_rest() -> get_rest_url(). This should prevent errors when using the plugin with WP CLI and when plugins make WP_Query calls during plugins_loaded.
  • Fix: Don’t attempt to initialize side query filtering until after_theme_setup hook. This should prevent errors when plugins make WP_Query calls during plugins_loaded, and allow further delaying initialization if needed from themes functions.php file.
  • Fix: Backward compatibility issue with WP versions <6.2 that made settings page not render.
  • Fix: Bug where Block Controls didn’t work on WooCommerce pages. This was filtering pre_render_block but not returning a value. Now we run our check after theirs to ensure that bug has no effect on our plugin. Report

v2.0.9 – 09/24/2023

  • Improvement: Better handling of restriction titles & content. Admins with priv can insert any content into the restriction messages.

    return 'init'; // Try setup_theme, after_theme_setup, init or wp_loaded
    } );
