How to allow downloads by login, role or membership plan
Conditional Access is the Pro rule builder for visitor-based decisions. Conditions inside one group use AND, which means they must all match. Separate groups use OR, which means any complete group can allow access.
Build a rule you can explain
- Open the item, enable Conditional Access and create the first rule group.
- Choose a condition such as logged-in status, WordPress role or a supported membership plan.
- Add another condition to the same group only when both must be true, for example Logged in AND Gold membership.
- Create a second group when another complete route should also be allowed, for example Administrator OR Gold membership.
- Choose what happens when the visitor does not qualify: hide the shortcode, show a message, offer an alternative download or show an alternative redirect button.
- Save and test every expected visitor type, including a logged-out user and a user who should not qualify.
