What your Protected Content plugin does

A focused plugin that adds a protection setting to Elementor content. You choose a password or a role and what visitors see instead.

Password protection
Visitors type a password to unlock the section.
Role protection
Only the roles you pick, such as Subscriber, see the content.
Locked message
Show your own message or a login prompt when content is locked.
One settings page
Its own item in your WordPress admin menu, so options are easy to find and change.
Good to know: The content is hidden before the page is sent to the visitor. It is meant for sections on a page, not for protecting files or whole downloads.

Tell Ora what you need. Check the plan before you pay.

Describe your Elementor Protected Content Plugin in your own words. Ora replies with a plan and a price. Nothing is built until you approve it.

Questions

Is there a free Elementor protected content plugin?

Yes, free ones may exist. Build your own when you want exact behavior and nothing extra.

Can I use both a password and a role?

Yes. You can let some roles skip the password while everyone else has to enter it. Ora writes this into the plan.

Do I need Elementor?

Yes. This plugin is built for Elementor and adds its protection settings to the Elementor editor, so your site needs Elementor. You don't need to buy Happy Addons Pro.

Can I get a refund?

The trial fee is refunded automatically if a build fails. A purchased plugin can be refunded within 14 days if it doesn't do what the approved plan said and Ora can't fix it, as long as it hasn't been downloaded or installed.
