Post still readable through url copy paste link

  • add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘red_show_user_posts’);
    function red_show_user_posts( $query ){
    if( current_user_can(‘red’) || current_user_can(‘orange’) &&
    $query->is_main_query() ) if( $query->is_main_query() ) {
    $query->set( ‘category__not_in’, (array(33, 32, 31, 28, 23,26)) );
    } return $query;}

    Posts are excluded from category but still readable through direct link.

    How to full exclude? Really thanks for helping me out.

  • Hello,

    If no one else but only you (admin) need to read the Posts, you can try set the visibility of the Posts to private.

    If you want to restrict the Posts or Pages based on certain users, you may want to use a plug-in (e.g. search page restriction in the plug-in directory)

    Thanks but your answer has nothing to do with my question.

    @steelclover

    I wonder if you can elaborate further?

    One of the plug-in has the following capability:
    “Our WordPress Post restrictions feature also helps you to Restrict access in categories to logged in/out users or specific user roles.”

    logged in/out users

    So it should restrict direct link?
