    \n

    Will it work with custom post types?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Yes! The plugin works with all public post types registered in WordPress.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Can I redirect users to an external URL?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Not yet. You can redirect them to a page where you handle the external redirect using a simple script or shortcode.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Does it support multiple roles per page\/post?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Yes, you can select multiple roles for each piece of content.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    What happens if no redirect page is set?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    The plugin will use the global fallback page set in the plugin settings. If that\u2019s not set, users are redirected to the homepage.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
