 * Is there a simple way to create an admin on the Front end user side who can access
   all restricted content on the front end? I have 3 different pages that can only
   be accessed by their respective user level(3,4,5). How do I keep those pages 
   restricted to the certain level, but also allow an admin user to view all of 
   them?

 * Hi oleksiakd95,
 * The admin may already view all restricted content and created on back-end. Is
   there a reason for which you also want it on front-end?
 * The simplest way of doing it would be to create a level access specifically for
   admin. So for example, level 1 would be Administrator. And add it to all the 
   restricted pages.
 * Let us know if this solution works out for you.
 * Best regards,

 * If I have level 1 as Administrator, and then I have a page that will be level
   4 access, how do I give them both access to that page without giving access to
   levels 2 and 3?

 * Hi oleksiakd95,
 * There are many shortcode attributes to the `[restricted][/restricted]`shortcode.
   However, we do not have one that allows to pick multiple levels that at once.
   A solution would be to coordinate your levels and use the shortcode attributes`[
   maximum_level]` and `[minimum_level]`, which allow you to choose which level 
   range will be able to view the restricted content.
 * Therefore, a solution would be to have the admin at another level, for example,
   5. Then you would have as shortcode `[restricted minimum_level='4' maximum_level
   ='5']`
 * Here is a link to our documentation. You will be able to find all the shortcodes
   of the plugin here: [http://www.etoilewebdesign.com/plugins/front-end-only-users/documentation-front-end-only-users/](http://www.etoilewebdesign.com/plugins/front-end-only-users/documentation-front-end-only-users/)
 * Let us know if you need help in coordinating the levels.

 * Thank you for your reply, but I’m not sure that would help me with the other 
   levels though. If I had my admin set up the way above, he would only be able 
   to see level 4, but not 2 and 3. I need to be able to have the admin see all 
   the levels on the front end of the site.

 * Hi Oleksiak,
 * In that case, you could make that page accessible to levels 2 through 5, like
   so:
 *     ```
       [restricted minimum_level='2' maximum_level='5']
       ```
