About this plugin
Your Content. Your Rules. Decide who sees what and when.
No setup or complex settings. Write content, decide who should see it, and press publish.
Content Visibility provides a set of controls to say whether each discrete piece of content (or ‘block’ in WordPress parlance) should be shown to users who are signed in to your site or not. Additional add-ons provide controls for role-based visibility, time-based visibility, and location-based visibility. You can also show or hide blocks to folks using RSS Readers.
Individual Block Controls
Every individual block on all posts and pages (and custom post types) on your site can have their own controls. Mix and match the visibility of blocks on a single page. Need some blocks to show to everyone and a few to only be available to your site’s subscribers?
No problem. Only want a message to appear on Christmas Day? You got it.
Only want those who are signed in to your site to see certain pieces of content? Easy peasy.
At a glance
An icon next to each block with active rules allows your content authors to see which blocks may or may not be shown to certain audiences at a glance.
Reusable blocks
Use Reusable Blocks? No problem, Content Visibility handles those too.
Columns and Nested Blocks
Do you use columns and put other blocks in them? ). Other examples of nested blocks are the Group Block or if you use an accordion or tabs block; all work!
Widgets

Want to show a specific text block to only people who are signed in and ONLY on search results? You got it.
