Solved Restrict page with form?

    Hello everyone! I thought this would be fairly straight-forward, but I can't seem to find a plugin that does this. Here's what I need to do:

    I want to protect specific pages on our site with a form that the user has to fill out to gain access. Once they submit the form, the content appears, but we also get an email notification (ideally to a few different email addresses) that tells us this person has submitted the form for access. Right now, we use Forminator, so it would be awesome if we could use that as the access form.

    Is there a simple way to do this?

    If the actual pages aren't particular sensitive and you're mainly trying to capture the user's information for use in marketing, etc, then a simple approach would be to set up a redirect on the form so that it takes the user to the page once the form is submitted, e.g.:

    https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#after-submission-behavior

    If you give the page a reasonably hard to guess URL, exclude it from site search and navigation and set it not to be crawled (e.g. in your robots.txt file), that should prevent users from accidentally encountering it. But note that it's not as protected as, say, a password protected page.

    If you need the content to be a bit more secure, another option would be to set a password on the page(s) using WordPress's built-in password protection, and then when the Forminator form is submitted email the user the access details, e.g. the password and a link to the page, using the email notification settings:

    https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#email-notifications-forms

    When the form is submitted it could redirect to the password protected page or display a message telling the user to check their email for the details.

    This is pretty much what I ended up doing. Thanks for your reply!
