Name: GT3D – Role-Based Content
Author: gt3dmakers

Wholesale buyers, public sector customers, resellers, members, staff… Some users need pages that others should not see. GT3D – Role-Based Content does it without any settings screen: everything happens in the page editor.

Reserve a page in two clicks

Open a page, find the “Role access” panel in the sidebar and tick the roles allowed to see it. That’s it. Tick nothing and the page stays public.

People without access are sent to an “Access denied” page, created for you when the plugin is activated. Edit it like any page to match your site.
Write a refusal message for each page, or keep the default one.
Visitors who are not logged in get a login button that brings them back to the page they wanted.
Nothing of the reserved page is sent to people who cannot open it: not the content, not the title.

Menus update themselves

Links to a reserved page disappear for everyone who cannot open it, in:

classic menus (Appearance > Menus), including menus displayed by most page builders and mega menu plugins;
the Navigation block of block themes, with its submenus;
automatic page lists (Page List block, Pages widget);
custom links that point to the page address.

WooCommerce My Account menu

With WooCommerce, one more switch in the panel adds the page to the My Account menu, only for the roles that can open it. Choose where it goes: first, after any existing item, or just before “Log out”.

Restricted content inside a page

To hide only part of a page, use the “Restricted content” block or the [gt3d_restrict] shortcode. Choose who sees the content: only some roles, or everyone except some roles.

Already have the content in your page? Select the blocks, then choose Transform to > Restricted content, like you would with a Group. “Ungroup” removes the restriction and keeps the blocks.

Elementor

A “Role access” panel in the Advanced tab of every section, column, container and widget. Choose who sees the element: only some roles, or everyone except some roles. Restricted elements are removed on the server, never stored in Elementor’s element cache, and the editor and preview always show them so you can keep working on them.

Built for real sites

Reserved pages are hidden from search engines, sitemaps (WordPress and Yoast SEO), site searches, archives, feeds and the REST API.
Administrators always see everything, with a reminder in the admin bar.
A “Reserved” view and an “Access” column in the pages list show what is reserved at a glance.
Works with the block editor and the classic editor.
Multisite ready: each site gets its own “Access denied” page, including sites created later.
WooCommerce is optional. With WooCommerce: compatible with High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) and the Cart and Checkout blocks.
Translation ready. French translation included.

Privacy

The plugin does not send anything anywhere unless an administrator explicitly agrees. After activation, a welcome window on the “Access denied” page offers to share anonymous usage statistics; the box is unticked by default, and nothing is sent until it is ticked.

When sharing is on, a report is sent once a week to https://gt3dmakers.com (GT3D Makers, France). It contains:

the versions of the plugin, WordPress, WooCommerce and PHP, the language of the site, whether it is a multisite, whether the theme is a block theme, and the family of the web server;
which page builders, cache, SEO and role plugins are active (yes or no only);
counts about the use of the plugin, such as the number of reserved pages, and the size of the site as ranges (for example “11-50 pages”).

It never contains the address of the site, email addresses, names, titles, content, IP addresses kept on the server, or anything about the visitors of the site. The site is identified by a random ID generated on the site, which cannot be traced back to it.

You can see exactly what is sent, and stop sharing at any time, in Settings > Role access. Stopping sharing also asks the server to delete the data received from your site.

External services

This plugin uses an external service to collect optional anonymous usage statistics to help improve the plugin.
