Hi,


I'd like to know if there's a way to restrict a page to some users only. These pages would be accessible only to paid membership users.


I've seen 2 paid membership plugins but they doesn't clearly state if what I'd like to achieve is possible or not (I found on ‘paidmembership' plugin forum that this is not possible, 2014 post tho).


Does Oxwall allow developers to make content and pages available on a certain user role ?

You can restrict plugins by user role, but, if you are talking about a custom page, the current platform limitations only allow you to set view between guests, and / or registered members. The only work around I can think of is when you create the page; don't set a menu item for the page. Create a custom html widget with a hyperlink to the page that you created in the widget. The widget will allow you to set view permission by role.
