Timed access

Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible to grant access to all content to users who are not logged in, but just for a short period of time. After, x minutes, I would like all unlogged users to be redirected to a login page.

Thank you!

Currently this is not supported out of the box, but it would be possible grant access to any user for a period of time with something like this:

add_filter('rua/user/global-access', function($has_access, $user) {
    $temp_access_time = 5*60; //5 minutes
    if($user->ID > 0) {
        return $has_access;
    }
    if(!isset($_COOKIE["rua-limited-access-".$user->ID])) {
        setcookie("rua-limited-access-".$user->ID,time());
    } elseif($_COOKIE["rua-limited-access-".$user->ID] + $temp_access_time > time()) {
        $has_access = true;
    }
    return $has_access;
});

Obviously this is a very simple method of doing it, and it could be improved by storing the access in a database instead of a cookie.

I hope this helps!
