Restrict Content Pro IP Restriction 1.2.8

Restrict Content Pro IP Restriction is a WordPress add-on for tightening access control on sites protected with Restrict Content Pro. It solves a common problem: managing who can reach content and register by using network-level rules instead of relying only on usernames or general permissions.

With IP whitelisting, you can allow trusted visitors to bypass restrictions on specific content. With IP blacklisting, you can prevent unwanted IPs from registering through Restrict Content Pro. The plugin is designed to work seamlessly with Restrict Content Pro and supports flexible settings at multiple levels.

Main Features

• IP whitelisting — Allow selected IP addresses to bypass Restrict Content Pro restrictions for protected content.
• Global configuration — Apply allow rules at a site-wide level for consistent access handling.
• Subscription-level rules — Set IP exceptions per subscription context to match membership logic.
• Per-post/page targeting — Whitelist IPs for specific posts or pages without affecting the whole site.
• IP blacklisting — Block specified IP addresses from registering through Restrict Content Pro.
• Registration protection — Reduce the risk of unwanted signup attempts by filtering at the IP level.
• Granular access control — Combine whitelisting and blacklisting to manage trusted and restricted networks.
• Easy setup in WordPress — Configure rules through the WordPress admin interface alongside Restrict Content Pro settings.

Benefits

• Tighter security — Limits content access and registration attempts using IP-based filtering.
• More precise access — Whitelisting and blacklisting can be tailored globally, by subscription, or by post/page.
• Better user experience — Trusted visitors bypass unnecessary blocks, while blocked IPs are prevented from signing up.
• Lower abuse risk — Helps reduce automated or unwanted registration attempts routed through specific networks.
• Clearer membership control — Aligns network exceptions with Restrict Content Pro’s content protection flow.
