What it does
Running a site often means content has a shelf life. A seasonal product should go live on a set day and vanish later, and some pages should only be seen by certain members. Doing this by hand means remembering to log in and change settings at the right moment. This plugin automates that work by publishing or unpublishing items inside the date and time windows you choose, and by checking user roles before showing restricted content.
Rules are managed from a dedicated scheduler menu in the WordPress admin. It works with native WordPress post types, bbPress posts, third-party custom post types and WooCommerce products, so WooCommerce is required for the store features. For shops, a product can stay visible while being impossible to add to the cart, which helps with upcoming launches or items you want people to see before they can buy. Visitors who are denied access can be sent to a custom page you pick.
Best for
- WooCommerce stores running timed product launches or seasonal items
- Membership sites restricting content by user role
- Publishers scheduling posts and pages to expire

Questions about WP Posts & WC Products Restrict Access / Scheduler
Can I make a product disappear from my shop on a certain date?
Yes. You can set a date and time window for a WooCommerce product so it is published at the start and unpublished at the end. The same scheduling works for posts, pages and custom post types.
Can customers see a product without being able to buy it?
Yes. The unpurchasable product mode keeps a WooCommerce product visible while blocking it from being added to the cart. This is handy for teasing an upcoming release or displaying items that are currently out of stock.
What happens when someone without the right role visits restricted content?
Access is denied based on the user roles you choose, and you can redirect those visitors to a custom page. That page could explain how to gain access or point them to related content.
Does it work with forums and custom post types?
It supports all native WordPress post types, bbPress posts and third-party custom post types, so you can schedule or restrict forum content and items created by other plugins alongside regular posts and products.
