evcom Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 I have been searching for ways to increase sign-ups and came across ideas like: - restricting guest access (core functionality) - attachments/downloads for members only (core functionality) - guest view limit (app in marketplace) - premium memberships (using commerce, paid or free) What I did not find is: - a function or app/plugin that can truncate posts with the idea to promote sign-ups. This would be less restricting than to ban guest access. - set permissions per post or thread (e.g. for use with forums, blogs). Both two functions are widely used on news websites, e.g. some news are accessible to guests, others not, and/or a teaser is shown to guest users. Did I overlook such functionality or app or does it really not exist? Would it be a good idea, what do you think?
opentype Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 (edited) It is possible with the normal permission system. You just have to apply the permissions on the category level, not the item level. But in the feeds where all items are mixed, it still leads to the result you are asking for. You can also use Pages feed blocks which have the option to ignore user permissions, so you get a proper preview without view access of the entry. Edited March 26, 2020 by opentype evcom 1
