Description

The plugin protects a site so that only members can access its pages.

Suitable for site lockdowns, private sites and sites that are under construction.

It allows to redirect visitors to a particular page or to the WordPress login.

Members who are logged in have access to the site.
Members must belong to the site’s Registered group, or to a particular group as determined specifically for the site.

The plugin is an extension to Groups which is required.

The redirection settings can be adjusted in Settings > Groups Blog Protect :

Redirection options can be set for the blog – or for each blog in a multisite setup:

  • no redirection
  • redirect to a specific post, note that with this option the blog is shown to the visitor but only that page can be visited
  • redirect to the WordPress login

The redirect status code can be selected among:

  • Moved Permanently (301)
  • Found (302)
  • See other (303)
  • Temporary Redirect (307)

Site administrators can determine which group is used to protect the site:

  • By default, users must belong to the Registered group to be able to access the site, so any registered user who is logged in will have access.
  • The constant GROUPS_BLOG_PROTECT_GROUP can be set in wp-config.php to indicate the name of the group to which users must belong to be able to access the site.
  • For multisites, the GROUPS_BLOG_PROTECT_GROUP_n constant can be used to indicate the name of the group required to access a particular site, where n is the blog ID of the site.
