Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →
WP PlugIndex currently records Simple PageAccess version 1.3 as active, updated 1mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
Simple PageAccess is probably the smallest, most powerful access control plugin you’ll ever install.
In under 100 lines of code, it gives you role-based control over who can view each page — without cluttering your dashboard or slowing down your site.
Adds a “Only Allow Logged In Users” checkbox to each page and post
Dynamically show checkboxes for each user role via clean in-editor UI
Restrict access with zero configuration, straight from the page editor
Display a centered heading message: “You are not allowed to view this page!” for unauthorized users
No separate settings page, no database bloat — just smart, surgical code
Perfect for membership sites, private client pages, internal portals, or any time you want fast, targeted access control.
