Uninstallation
If you decide to deactivate this plugin, you may not want all your restricted posts to suddenly become visible to everyone. If that's the case, you can convert all the restricted posts to the standard WordPress "private" mode before deactivating the plugin.
To privatize posts before deactivating the plugin (or to undo):
- Make sure to activate the sub-plugin 'Social Access Control - Privatize Posts'.
- Go to the 'Manage' tab and select the 'Privatize Posts' page.
