Restricting Page

  • I am using the plugin “Paid Membership Pro”. This is in use of the site due to having customers pay to have certain privileges they can access on my site. The problem I have with this is the fact that this plugin only works toward “pages/post”. In my case, I am using a “custom link” in the Navigation menu, therefore, I cannot restrict that page.

    Now, is there a certain method I can connect my external link to a Page. Once a user clicks this Page, they are directed to that external link immediately.

    Thank you for your time and support.

  • I can think of two ways – one hard and one easy. Want the easy way first? ??

    Easy: Create a page (or post) with a blurb about the link and the link itself. Protect this page and make a nav menu link to it, which won’t show unless the user has proper access.

    Hard(er): Create a child theme and use either code from the plugin (preferably) or the WordPress user_can( $user, $capability ) function to choose whether to display this menu item or not. You may need a developer for this one if you’re allergic to hacking PHP/WordPress code!
