What it does
Membership sites often need to hide some content from visitors while showing it to paying members. Doing that on pages built with WPBakery Page Builder can mean juggling shortcodes or separate settings away from the layout itself. This add-on moves those access controls into the builder, so restricting a section becomes part of designing the page. You can protect articles, videos, courses, downloadable files and special offers, and keep the public parts of a page visible to everyone else.
Access rules are applied at the row, column or element level using toggles and settings in the WPBakery interface. Rules are based on MemberPress membership levels, subscriptions or user roles, and they can be nested to handle layouts with several layers of restriction. Because it runs on MemberPress's core membership management, it also works alongside other MemberPress tools such as Courses, Quizzes and Gradebook. It suits site owners who already build with WPBakery and run their memberships through MemberPress.
Best for
- MemberPress sites built with WPBakery Page Builder
- Online educators selling courses and lessons
- Bloggers and publishers offering members-only content
Features
Row, column and element protection
Restrict access to a full row, a single column or one element directly inside WPBakery Page Builder, so you can protect exactly the part of a page you want.
Membership-based access rules
Choose who can view content based on membership levels, subscriptions or user roles, so different members see the content that matches their plan.
Visual settings with no coding
Content protection is handled through simple toggles and settings in the WPBakery builder, with no code or shortcodes to write by hand.
Nested content protection
Apply multiple layers of membership rules within complex layouts, so restrictions inside restricted sections still behave the way you set them up.
Built on MemberPress
Uses MemberPress's core membership management to protect pages and content you build with WPBakery, keeping your access rules tied to your existing memberships.
Works with MemberPress add-ons
Operates alongside other MemberPress tools such as Courses, Quizzes and Gradebook, which helps when your protected pages are part of a larger learning or membership setup.
Public content stays visible
Only the sections you restrict are hidden, so public content on the same page remains open to visitors and search engines.

Questions about WPBakery Content Protection
Do I need MemberPress and WPBakery Page Builder for this add-on?
Yes. It is a MemberPress add-on that brings MemberPress content protection into WPBakery Page Builder. It relies on MemberPress for membership levels and rules, and it works on pages you build with WPBakery.
Can I hide just part of a page instead of the whole page?
Yes. You can set access rules on individual rows, columns or elements inside WPBakery Page Builder. That lets you keep a page's public sections open while restricting only the parts meant for members, such as a video or a download.
Can different membership levels see different content on the same page?
Yes. Access rules can be based on membership levels, subscriptions or user roles, and nested rules are supported for layered layouts. That makes it possible to show one section to one plan and another section to a different plan.
Does it work with MemberPress Courses?
The add-on is described as working with other MemberPress tools, including Courses, Quizzes and Gradebook. That suits sites that combine WPBakery-built pages with a MemberPress learning setup.
