Products Scheduler / Restrict Access

Store owners often need products to appear or disappear at set times, and some items should only reach certain visitors. Doing that by hand means remembering to edit each listing at the right moment. This plugin lets you set date and time windows for posts, pages, custom post types and WooCommerce products, so availability follows your plan without manual edits.

Access rules work by user role, so you decide which groups of users can view a given product or piece of content. It covers standard WordPress post types, bbPress posts and third-party custom post types. You can also keep a WooCommerce product visible while blocking purchase, which suits teasing an upcoming item or showing something that is out of stock. A dedicated scheduler menu in the admin area keeps these rules in one place.

Features

• Date and time scheduling: Set exact windows for publishing or unpublishing posts, pages, custom post types and WooCommerce products, so items appear and disappear when you want them to.
• Role-based access restriction: Limit who can view specific content or products according to user role, which helps you present different catalogs or content to different groups of users.
• Visible but unpurchasable products: Display a WooCommerce product that cannot be added to the cart. This works for upcoming launches or out-of-stock items you still want visitors to see.
• Redirects for restricted content: Send visitors to a custom page when they are denied access, pointing them toward a relevant alternative instead of leaving them at a dead end.
• Wide post type support: Works with all native WordPress post types, bbPress posts and third-party custom post types, so the same rules apply across many kinds of site setups.
• Dedicated scheduler menu: A scheduling interface sits in the WordPress admin menu, giving you one spot to set up and manage your visibility rules.
• WooCommerce product control: Manage product availability directly, from timed appearance and removal to role-limited viewing, keeping your catalog current as your plans change.

Best for

• WooCommerce stores that time product launches or removals
• Sites that show content to specific user roles
• Store owners who preview upcoming products without selling them
