Feature request: support default content restriction settings

    Currently, it seems that if I want to set ‘Content Restriction’ settings for each post and page type, I have to go into every page/post and make the settings for each page.

    Site management and content protection would be a lot easier if you could set up default content restrictions for each post/page type.

    Any chance of this being added as a new feature?

    Hello @davout

    1. You could set up restrictions for all site in UM settings.
    2. You could create a custegory for posts and set up restrictions for it.

    Regards.

    The use case for this request is new posts on the bbPress forums plugin. Given the dynamic nature of forum posts there is no way to set the content restriction as a default.

    Hence, for an unauthenticated user if they try to access a bbPress post via its URL they get a 404 error. What I need is a way to auto set the content restriction for all bbPress posts and replies so that an unauthenticated user is redirected to the login page, and that after login the process forwards onto the originally requested bbPress post.

    Hello @davout

    No, you could only restrict the parent topic.

    Restricting the parent topic is no use. This item is entitled ‘Feature request’.

    It seems like a no brainer new feature addition to me.

    Providing a default content restriction setting by post type would save web developers a huge amount of manual effort.

    Hello @davout

    Unfortunately, this functionality does not exist in our plugin at this time. We are planning to add a new system of restrictions, but this is not a matter of the near future.

    Regards.
