easy, exactly what it says
by Tabitha·5 months ago

good plugin. simple and to the point. at first I was confused about how to customise and activate so here’s how:

  • Install it
  • Activate it
  • check for “age gate” somewhere on your admin menu
  • customize it for your website

no coding needed, no shortcodes, no widgets. It appears without you doing anything. Save your settings, test it and there you go 🙂

Thanks for the plugin!

Cool

Works fine! Just can’t find where can I translate the “continue to site” string

Age discrimination is a disgrace

What a fantastic little age gate plugin.
I use it for an online liquor shop.
Easy to set up, not a lot of configuration capabilities, but it does what it needs to.
Like the redirect if user ticks NO.
