Description
Do you have to filter out younger people? With this super simple age gate you’ll fix those age restrictions quickly.
This plugin is ment for webshops and other types of websites that has to have a curtain where people below your set age can’t peek behind.
With some nice customisable items and features and the option to add a cookie notice this is a complete plugin for those who need is.
Super Simple Age Gate contains the following features:
- Simply put in an age and activate the plugin.
- Have the visitor confirm their age by using a “yes, I confirm” button OR by letting them fill in their full birth date.
- Custom background, display text and logo for ease of use. If you don’t like the embedded themes, just change the css yourself in a non-destructive way.
- Enable or disable the cookie notice. This is useful for websites that operate in Europe.
- Whitelist some policy pages that need to be shown.
- Google-bot friendly. Those crawlers go right underneath the curtain…

FAQ
-
Do people have to fill in their birthdate?
-
That is possible. Or let them just click a confirm button. Not sure if this conforms to the law but the option is there.
-
Can I set the age I want?
-
Oh yes it sure can! Up to a 110.
-
Is half of it unusable because I have to pay?
-
No. The entire thing is free and it will be in the future.
-
Does is comply with European law?
-
I am not entirely sure since it is a big grey area as with all web-applications and plugins. But it shows that you are willing to work on it.
