Works like a snap, once I figured out how configuration works

Hey @glennnorman

Thanks for choosing to use Content Control and for taking the time to leave this review! If you have a moment, can you let me know what improvements or new features you would like to see in future updates?

You know, the thing I had to get used to was the three-tab interface to set access permissions. Actually it makes sense, since I only have to add a post to a category to control access to it. I had gotten used to being able to set post/page access in the post editor itself, but this would kind of go against your design principle. So don’t change that.

@glennnorman – Good catch. Having multiple plugins that deal with targeting I’m sure you can imagine we have tried it all. In my first major plugin Easy Modal we started with per page settings for targeting. I quickly realized it had major flaws.

1. If you ever want to quickly change it on multiple pages or disable it entirely, it meant editing it in potentially dozens or hundreds of places.
2. If we made changes to the targeting rule storage, we wouldn’t just be manipulating our own content types, we would have to loop over and modify every post type we added options to.
3 If another plugin’s post type had issues on the page breaking things, and our fields weren’t working, they would ask us to fix it, we would debug and then point them to the other plugin, wasting a ton of everybody’s time.

So we decided for ease of development, support & data needs, its always best to keep it under one roof where possible.

Appreciate the feedback.
