 * I apologize for the simple question.
    I installed and activated the plugin, but
   cannot see where or how to access the features. I looked in Settings and looked
   on a few pages to see if there were options added there, but saw nothing in either
   location.

 * Okay, I found it. I had seen Restrictions under Users, but since there were no
   restrictions listed, I thought it was something else.
 * I am now at the add location and am not quite understanding how to use it.
    There
   are some pages I just don’t want to exist, but it is an e-course and membership
   site and the e-course plugin registration shows up even when I uncheck the anyone
   can register button–registration is through my smf forum and a bridge links it
   to wordpress. So I don’t want anyone to be able to access the registration on
   wordpress. I also onyl want my moderators to have access to the buddypress members
   list; mydomain.com/members.
 * Those are just a couple examples of my intended uses. HOw do I do what I need
   to do?
 * Sorry for not understanding.

 * No need to apologize.
 * While not knowing what e-course plugin you are using, maybe it is possible to
   make the registration page “private”?
    If not, you could create a Restriction
   and only allow administrators to access it.
 * For the members page, create a Restriction for it and then only allow moderators
   to access it.
 * I’ll write this up in a usage guide eventually:
    **How to create a restriction**
   Go to Users > Restrictions > Add New On this screen, create a new Condition Group
   and add some content to it from the box to the left. Read more about Condition
   Groups under the “Help” tab. Now, to the right, select what User Role you want
   to have exclusive access to this content – i.e. what User Role you want to restrict
   it to. For unauthorized users, you can choose whether to redirect to another 
   page or to show the content from another page along with a teaser/excerpt from
   the restricted content. Finally, give your new restriction a descriptive title
   and save it.
