Description

MHT Entry Confirm adds a confirmation gate and content restriction modal to your WordPress site. Before visitors can view protected pages, a full-screen confirmation modal appears — content is revealed only after the visitor explicitly confirms they meet the required conditions.

Designed for sites that need simple, privacy-friendly access control without the overhead of complex membership plugins.

Common use cases:

– Age verification for adult content, alcohol, tobacco, or gambling-related sites
– Content warnings for mature themes, violence, or graphic media
– Regional or legal access restrictions (e.g. country-specific compliance)
– Age-gated product pages for games, movies, or media with age ratings

Why choose MHT Entry Confirm?

– No personal data collected — fully GDPR-friendly
– No tracking, no ads, no upsells
– Free and open-source (GPL-2.0)
– Lightweight — no impact on page speed

Frontend-First Architecture

MHT Entry Confirm is designed with a frontend-first architecture.

The confirmation gate runs entirely in the browser using JavaScript and cookies.
After the page is loaded, the modal logic works independently from the WordPress backend.

This means:

– No AJAX requests to the server
– No PHP processing during confirmation
– No database interaction for visitor validation

All confirmation logic runs on the client side.

Features

– Blocking confirmation modal
Displays a full-page modal before protected content is shown.

– Cookie-based access memory
Remembers confirmed visitors for a configurable number of days, or for the current browser session only.

– Customizable appearance
Adjust logo image, title color, modal title, description text, button color, backdrop color and opacity to match your site design.

– Safe redirect for restricted visitors
Redirect visitors who do not confirm to a specified external URL.

– Flexible button settings
Customize confirmation and decline button labels, and optionally swap their positions.

– Exclusion rules
Disable the confirmation modal on specific posts, categories, or tags by ID.

– Cookie flag control
Change the cookie flag value to invalidate existing cookies and force re-confirmation for all visitors.

– Test mode
Preview and adjust the modal without saving cookies — useful for development and design tuning.

For Developers

MHT Entry Confirm dispatches a custom JavaScript event after a visitor successfully passes the confirmation step, allowing you to trigger additional logic.

The event name is stable within the same major version.

<script>
    document.addEventListener("mhtentryconfirm_passed", function() {
        // Custom logic after confirmation is passed
    });
</script>

Does this plugin perform real identity or age verification?

No. MHT Entry Confirm is a self-declaration confirmation gate — it relies on visitor self-confirmation. It does not perform identity verification and does not collect personal information. This is consistent with how most content gates work on the web.

Is this plugin GDPR compliant?

Yes. The plugin uses a strictly functional cookie only to remember confirmation status. No personal data is collected, stored, or transmitted. No third-party services are involved.

Will the confirmation modal appear on every page?

Yes, by default. You can exclude specific posts, categories, or tags from the confirmation requirement via the plugin settings.

How long is the confirmation stored?

By default, the confirmation cookie is stored for 365 days. You can change this value in the settings. If left empty, confirmation is stored only for the current browser session.

Can I customize the look of the confirmation modal?

Yes. You can customize the logo, title, description text, button labels, button color, backdrop color, and backdrop opacity — all from the settings page.

How can I force all visitors to confirm again?

Change the Cookie Flag Value in the settings. This invalidates all existing cookies and forces re-confirmation for every visitor.

Does this plugin slow down my site?

No. MHT Entry Confirm is intentionally lightweight and has no impact on page load performance.

Can I use this as a content warning plugin?

Yes. While age verification is a common use case, the plugin works for any scenario where you need visitors to confirm they understand or accept conditions before viewing content.
