Overview
On a classified ad site, different categories may need different posting rules. WP Adverts – Restricted Categories lets administrators set which WordPress user roles can post ads in selected categories. This gives site owners a way to direct submissions by role and manage access across the marketplace.
The plugin works with WP Adverts and uses category-level restrictions. Administrators can assign access through a settings panel, using default or custom WordPress user roles. During ad submission, users see the categories they are allowed to post in, helping keep the submission choices relevant to their permissions.
Features
- Role-based category access: Choose which user roles can post ads in specific categories, so posting permissions can differ across the classified site.
