FAQ

I canÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t get past the Age Gate / The Age Gate only worked once: The most likely cause for this is caching on your site either via a plugin or your hosting provider. If the Age Gate appears stuck try using the JavaScript mode in the advanced tab and clear any caches.
Can I restrict a particular page?: You can. If you use selected content, a checkbox will appear in content pages
Can I add my own logo/branding?: Of course, itÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s your site
IÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’m in X country, can I format the date style?: Yes! DD MM YYYY and MM DD YYYY are supported along with a choice of how the dates are entered.
I use caching, will that be affected?: From version 1.4.0 those using caching can select the “Cache Bypass” option to allow age gating even with caching on. Be sure to empty your cache when making changes to the plugin settings. From 2.0.0 this option is in Advanced -> Use uncachable version

This plugin was exactly what I needed to restrict a few specific products and a page to 18+. The setup was very easy and I really appreciate the options for styling to make it fit my site. 5 stars!

Support is non existent these days. Plugin crashes site on last few versions. Opened support thread which has received no reply in months. Moving to alternative plugin now.

Absolutely miserable ‘documentation’ on their website with no actual instructions on how to do a single thing. No walkthrough of the setup steps. No video available showing how it works. Just series of settings pages with on off switches. No clue how to install this to restrict a particular link or post, and even worse no place to even look it up. If youÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’re going to go through the hassle of creating software, spend ten minutes writing a little guide for it.

The plugin has a red flag on the PageSpeed Report that says: “Polyfills and transformations allow older browsers to use new JavaScript features. However, many are not necessary for modern browsers. For your integrated JavaScript, adopt a modern script implementation strategy by detecting module/nomodule functionality to reduce the amount of code sent to modern browsers while maintaining compatibility with legacy browsers.” Edit: The issue has been fixed. IÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’ll rate the plugin according to this edit.
