 * I want users who have logged into the website to be redirected to a restricted
   area of the website. I though I had this set up correctly but when logged in 
   the user gets the message Sorry you are not allowed to go to this page.
 * Is there documentation for this …. I would like to know what Drip Content, Negate,
   and Exposure -singular and archive are referring to.

 * Is the message “Sorry you are not allowed to go to this page” one that you have
   written, or are you using other plugins in combination with Restict User Access?
 * You can find the FAQ here: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/restrict-user-access/faq/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/restrict-user-access/faq/)
 * **Drip Content**
    With this option you can add a time to the conditions for the
   Access Level. This means that a user will get access to the content after the
   time has passed. It does not work for Levels that are synced with User Roles.
   See screenshot: [https://ps.w.org/restrict-user-access/assets/screenshot-2.png?rev=1490353](https://ps.w.org/restrict-user-access/assets/screenshot-2.png?rev=1490353)
 * **Negate**
    When you negate a group of conditions, it means that you restrict
   all other content but that. So if you add a condition group for All Posts and
   negate it, only users in this level will be able to see all content **but** posts(
   you effectively restrict everything except posts). Posts will be accessible to
   all users.
 * **Exposure**
    This means whether your conditions should be applied to single 
   posts, pages, custom post types, content written by select authors etc. (Singular
   exposure), or if it should be applied to the blog page, post type archives, author
   archives etc. (Archive exposure).
 * Let me know if this answers your question.

 * Hi,
    I am not sure where the “Sorry you are not allowed to go to this page” comes
   from… I have deactivated some other plugins and have not seen this for a while…?
 * I am still having difficulty with this. I have set logged in users as Basic with
   Read permission … (maybe that is incorrect) they can access all product pages…
   I can send a screenshot of the way I have set it up. I want the logged in user
   to be able to access all pages, … but I dont want them to see any part of the
   word press dashboard…. does that make sense… including the little Howdy (username)
   in the top right corner.

 * Maybe I am looking at this backwards…. I do not want the general viewer who is
   not logged in to have access to the Product Pages?

 * Can you explain in more detail when the user sees the “Sorry you are not allowed
   to go to this page” message? Eg. is it when logging in, or trying to visit a 
   specific link?
 * You can send me a screenshot of the level settings.
 * If you want to hide the top bar for your users, go to User Access -> Settings
   and check the option.
