Control who can view pages with a simple checkbox — restrict access to logged-in users and roles, right from the WordPress page editor.

== Description ==

**Simple PageAccess** is probably the smallest, most powerful access control plugin you'll ever install.

In under **100 lines of code**, it gives you role-based control over who can view each page — without cluttering your dashboard or slowing down your site.

- Adds a "Only Allow Logged In Users" checkbox to each page
- Dynamically show checkboxes for each user role via clean in-editor UI
- Restrict access with **zero configuration**, straight from the page editor
- Display a centered heading message: *"You are not allowed to view this page!"* for unauthorized users
- No separate settings page, no database bloat — just smart, surgical code

Perfect for membership sites, private client pages, internal portals, or any time you want fast, targeted access control.

== Installation ==

1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/simple-pageaccess` directory, or install via the WordPress Plugin Directory.
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
3. Edit any page. In the right-hand settings panel, check "Only Allow Logged In Users" to enable restrictions.
4. Choose the user roles that should be allowed to view the page.
