Description
The Restrict Content add-on blocks access to specific pages, posts, and site sections based on points, achievements, and ranks from GamiPress, turning any WordPress content into a reward for engagement. Compatible with the GamiPress ecosystem, it adds a metabox in the editor to set release rules and provides shortcodes that delimit restricted blocks within the same post, with customizable messages for users who have not yet met the requirements.

Built for administrators who already run GamiPress and need to convert points, achievements, and ranks into real access control, the Restrict Content add-on combines gamification mechanics with a native WordPress gated content model.
