* Shortcode for in content restrictions
* Choose to restrict an entire site, or selected content
* Select a different age on individual content
* Allow certain content to not be age gated under "all content" mode
* Three choices for input; dropdowns, input fields or a simple yes/no button
* Customise the order of the inputs based on your region (DD MM YYYY or MM DD YYYY)
* Allow a "remember me" check box if desired
* Ability to omit logged in users from being checked
* Add your own logo
* Update the text displayed on the entry form
* Select background colour/image, foreground colour and text colour
* Use built in styling out of the box, or your own custom style
* Ability to add legal note or information to the bottom of the form
* Redirect failed logins to a URL of your choice e.g. an alcohol awareness website.
* Ability to use a non caching version
* Various hooks to add even more customisation such as additional form fields
* Compatible with multilingual plugins WPML, Polylang (2.3+), WP Multilang

== Installation ==
1. Upload the 'age-gate' folder to the '/wp-content/plugins/' directory
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress
3. Visit 'Age Gate' admin section and adjust your configuration.

__Important__
Be sure to check the 'Access' settings tab to grant permissions and omit any post types you don't wish to display Age Gate options on.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==
= I can't get past the Age Gate / The Age Gate only worked once =

The most likely cause for this is caching on your site either via a plugin or your hosting provider. If the Age Gate appears stuck try using the JavaScript mode in the advanced tab and clear any caches.

= Can I restrict a particular page? =

You can. If you use selected content, a checkbox will appear in content pages

= Can I add my own logo/branding? =

Of course, it's your site

= I'm in X country, can I format the date style? =

Yes! DD MM YYYY and MM DD YYYY are supported along with a choice of how the dates are entered.

= I use caching, will that be affected? =

From version 1.4.0 those using caching can select the "Cache Bypass" option to allow age gating even with caching on. Be sure to empty your cache when making changes to the plugin settings. From 2.0.0 this option is in Advanced -> Use uncachable version
