Gozer makes your entire WordPress site private by requiring visitors to log in before they can see any content. Perfect for intranets, membership sites, development environments, or any site that needs restricted access.

Unlike other force login plugins, Gozer gives you complete control over exceptions. Configure exactly what should remain publicly accessible through an intuitive settings page.

Admin bar toggle – Quick on/off switch directly from the toolbar
System exceptions – Keep REST API, WP-Cron, WP-CLI, and AJAX working

Flexible redirects – Choose login page, 403 error, or custom URL
