Can I block everything?

Hi There,

I’m looking at purchasing your plugin but have some questions before I do.

Would I be able to restrict everything on my site for all levels?

I am creating a holiday letting website for agents and need to close down most of the site so they cant edit it and only allow them access to their specific page.

If this is doable can I block off certain parts of a page so they can edit parts of the site that are more generic on their own page?

Thanks

Mike

Would I be able to restrict everything on my site for all levels?

s2Member can restrict everything on your site, excluding the home page and Membership Options Page (where you’d have signup). You can find restriction options for blocking ALL Posts/Pages in your Dashboard:

Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Restriction Options -› Post Access Restrictions

If this is doable can I block off certain parts of a page so they can edit parts of the site that are more generic on their own page?

I’m unsure what you mean by this. s2Member does allow you to restrict certain parts of Posts/Pages with Shortcode Conditionals, but as for editing parts of your site, that’s not something s2Member supports.

See: Knowledge Base » Simple Shortcode Conditionals

Hi Bruce,

Thanks for your reply.

My main aim is to create a vacation rental agency website. The idea is for the owner to signup for whatever package they see fit and then are taken to a specific page where they create their vacation home details (This page is created within my theme I have) on page of theirs they have all the information they require to drag and drop/ fill in descriptions, upload media etc. Also on the page there are options to add “features” to their vacation home but I would prefer to set these myself as an admin because otherwise this list could get duplicated a lot so I would like to disable the use of this feature.

So an overview: I would like to allow an owner to access all of the sites front end. Only Dashboard, user profile, property edit and subscription updgrade.

I hope all that makes sense.

Kind Regards

Mike

So you’d like s2Member to allow access to all of your site’s frontend, but block access to your Dashboard unless a User has access?

s2Member (by default) blocks access to your WordPress Dashboard for Users signed up at Subscriber and s2Member Levels 1-4. You can change that by adding additional capabilities to the roles that s2Member creates, using the information provided here:
