What it does
Many sites need to show certain pages or posts only to the right people, such as paying members, students who finished a lesson or customers who bought a product. Handling that by hand gets messy as your audience grows. This extension ties content access to automation rules, so access can be granted or limited when a user does something specific, like completing a course, submitting a form or making a purchase.
Rules are set up in the AutomatorWP automation builder, where you combine triggers and actions across connected plugins such as WooCommerce, MemberPress and LearnDash. You can restrict by user role, set access that expires after a period of time for trials, and show a custom message to visitors who lack permission. It fits membership sites, online course platforms and any site that offers exclusive sections to select users.
Best for
- Membership sites with tiered content
- Online course sites using LearnDash
- WooCommerce stores offering customer-only content
Features
Restriction based on user actions
Grant or restrict access automatically depending on behavior such as course completion, form submissions or purchase history, so each user sees content that matches their activity.
Membership and ecommerce connections
Works with plugins like WooCommerce, MemberPress and LearnDash, letting you manage content access by membership level or purchase status.
Role-based access control
Choose which user roles can view specific content, which keeps access management simple when your site has several types of users.
No-code rule builder
Set up content restriction rules inside the AutomatorWP automation builder without writing any code, even when the rules have several conditions.
Time-limited access
Give users access that expires after a set period, which is useful for automated trial periods or limited-time offers to members.
Custom access messages
Show a tailored message to visitors who do not have permission to view restricted content, so they understand why it is hidden.
Multi-step workflows
Combine multiple triggers and actions across connected plugins to build automated workflows that decide who gets access and when.

Questions about AutomatorWP - Restrict Content
Can I restrict content until a student finishes a course?
Yes. Access can depend on user actions such as course completion, and the plugin works with LearnDash. You build the rule in the AutomatorWP automation builder so content opens up once the user completes the required step.
Can access be given only to customers who bought a product?
Yes. The extension connects with WooCommerce and can manage content access based on purchase history or purchase status, so buyers of a given product can be the only ones who see certain content.
Is it possible to offer temporary access, like a trial?
Yes. You can set time-limited content access, which lets you automate trial periods or limited-time offers. When the period ends, access to the restricted content ends with it.
What do visitors see if they are not allowed to view a page?
You can display a custom message to users who do not have permission to view restricted content. This lets you explain why the content is hidden and what is needed to access it.
