IT’S FABULOUS

Narin Pradeep October 30, 2023

I love this plugin 100%

Works for everything except blog/articles

flamuren July 10, 2023

I give it 5 stars since it works for almost everything and it does so with a great user experience and easy settings. The only thing I would love is that the plugin could block news articales. As of now everything is blocked, also the blog page. However some widgets in the footer show links to the blog articales and is not restricted so that everyone can read. I use the buddyX theme and its standard install/settings to try this out.

great plugin
