Works great! I wish it had the ability to set a group as having access to everything
that is restricted (i.e. user is not actual WP admins, but added to an admin type
group that people could be assigned to). I highly recommend an addition I found 
online that allows you to additionally protect a small portion of a page: http://

This is almost a great plugin. My problem is that it doesn’t go far enough. For 
example, I have just created an event which I have restricted to Registered Users
only. The problem is that the event still appears on our diary page (All in One 
Event Calendar). It’s only when you click on the event that you are told that you
cannot view this item. The event in question is no big deal, it’s just not relevant
to the general public. I just want the item hidden in the first place. I’ve had 
similar issues with posts. Or am I missing something here?

Sorry only one star guys! I CAN’T DISABLE PROTECTION ON ALL PAGES/POSTS THAT I PROTECT!
So to disable the protection i must disable the plugin! And more, all menus that
i protect disappear so prefer to use the integrated protection from WP

This is almost a good plugin – and it sorta works after you understand how to do
it that took me only minutes on the forum, not from your instructions. BUT… After
configuring it, my site is missing some things. A group was added and a user assigned
to it. Then, a post and a page was set to allow that group. Yes, I clicked “update”
to ensure the post and page were updated. I logged in as the user and cannot edit
the POST. All I see is “View” for all posts, including the one that this group is
assigned to. The PAGES link is missing in the left menu although this user should
be allowed to edit a PAGE. The parent POST shows the lock in the list. Confusing
especially when other POSTs show no lock. And, the live website denies users to 
pages that were protected. I thought your plugin affected only the admin area, not
the live website????? Hum…. what gives? And, what gives with the sporadic support?
your plugin is almost there with a little tweaking. I am so glad to test it before
making a purchase. If it worked, I would send $$ to you to buy a beer. If you fix
these within a week, I’ll change this to a 5-star review.
