Restricted Site Access is a WordPress plugin designed to enhance site security by limiting access to only logged-in users or those from specified IP addresses. This tool is particularly beneficial for Extranets, publicly hosted Intranets, and staging sites, where controlling visitor access is crucial. The plugin provides various options for customizing how restricted visitors are handled, including redirecting them to a login page, displaying a custom message, or sending them to a specified page.

In addition to its core functionality, Restricted Site Access integrates seamlessly into the Reading settings panel and multisite Network Settings panel, offering users the ability to enable or disable site restrictions easily. Users can also add specific IP addresses to an unrestricted list, including ranges, and quickly add their current IP. Additional features include customizing redirect locations and defining user-friendly messages, making it a versatile solution for managing site access.
