By that, I mean &#8220;locking&#8221; your content behind a notification that requires your visitors to complete an action before they view your content.<\/p>\n<p>As you&#8217;ve probably figured out, WordPress doesn&#8217;t include this functionality in its core. But you can get it with plenty of handy plugins. And in this post, I&#8217;ll give you some of the best plugins, as well as quick tutorials on how to use them to add content lockers to WordPress in various ways.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<div class='ti-tweet-clear'><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class='ti-tweet_wrapper'>\n\t\t    \t<div class='ti-tweet_text'>\n\t\t    \t\t<a href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=How+to+add+%23content+%23lockers+to+%23WordPress&via=themeisle&related=themeisle&url=https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/add-content-lockers-to-wordpress\/' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>How to add #content #lockers to #WordPress<\/a>\n\t\t    \t<\/div>\n\t\t    \t<div class='ti-tweet_sharebtn'>\n\t\t    \t<a href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=How+to+add+%23content+%23lockers+to+%23WordPress&via=themeisle&related=themeisle&url=https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/add-content-lockers-to-wordpress\/' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>Click To Tweet \n\t\t    \t\t<span><\/span>\n\t\t    \t<\/a>\n\t\t    <\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<h2>First &#8211; decide how you want to add content lockers to WordPress<\/h2>\n<p>&#8220;Content locker&#8221; is actually a fairly broad term. See, there are a variety of ways in which you can add content lockers to WordPress. So before you run off to start locking up your content, think about what you want to accomplish with your content locker.<\/p>\n<p>Generally, your options are requiring users to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Share or like your post on <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/social-media-strategy-for-wordpress\/\">social media<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Sign up for your email list<\/li>\n<li>Register as a user at your site<\/li>\n<li>Pay a small fee<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>While some plugins let you add multiple methods, most are focused on one specific action.<\/p>\n<p>So, quite obviously, if you want to boost your social media presence, you&#8217;ll want a social locker plugin. Whereas if you want to <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-newsletter-campaign\/\">grow your email list<\/a>, you&#8217;ll want something that offers email opt-in locker functionality.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll cover plugins for each different use below.<\/p>\n<h2>How to add a social locker to WordPress<\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re just concerned with adding a social locker to WordPress, OnePress Social Locker is a popular, free, and well-rated plugin for the job. <\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-pic-wrapper align-center large\" style=\"margin:20px 0;\"><div class=\"wp-pic large plugin scheme2\"  id=\"wp-pic-social-locker\" ><div class=\"wp-pic-flip\" style=\"display: none;\"><div class=\"wp-pic-face wp-pic-front error\"><span class=\"wp-pic-no-plugin\">Item not found:<\/br><i>\"social-locker\"<\/i><\/br>does not exist.<\/span><div class=\"monster-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eye-left\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eye-right\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"mouth\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"tooth-left\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"tooth-right\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"arm-left\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"arm-right\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"dots\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- .wp-pic-wrapper--><link rel='stylesheet' id='dashicons-css' href='https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-includes\/css\/dashicons.min.css?ver=6.8.5' type='text\/css' media='all' \/>\n<link rel='stylesheet' id='wppic-style-css' href='https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-plugin-info-card\/dist\/wppic-styles.css?ver=6.1.1' type='text\/css' media='all' \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-includes\/js\/jquery\/jquery.min.js?ver=3.7.1\" id=\"jquery-core-js\"><\/script>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-includes\/js\/jquery\/jquery-migrate.min.js?ver=3.4.1\" id=\"jquery-migrate-js\"><\/script>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" id=\"wppic-script-js-extra\">\n\/* <![CDATA[ *\/\nvar wppicAjax = {\"ajaxurl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/themeisle.com\\\/blog\\\/wp-admin\\\/admin-ajax.php\"};\n\/* ]]> *\/\n<\/script>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-plugin-info-card\/assets\/js\/wppic-script.min.js?ver=6.1.1\" id=\"wppic-script-js\"><\/script>\n\n<p>You can use it to require users to either share or subscribe to three different networks:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/integrate-wordpress-with-facebook\/\">Facebook<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/integrate-twitter-with-wordpress\/\">Twitter<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Google +<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can also get more features in the Pro version.<\/p>\n<p>To use OnePress Social Locker, all you need to do is <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/how-to-install-a-wordpress-plugin\/\">install and activate the free plugin<\/a> from your WordPress dashboard.<\/p>\n<p>Once it&#8217;s activated, head to <strong>Social Locker \u2192 All Lockers<\/strong> and edit the locker you&#8217;re interested in:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Sign-In Locker <\/strong>&#8211;

<em>popular<\/em> lightweight solutions for easily adding a paywall or signup locker to your content. They do exist, but none are popular enough that I feel comfortable recommending them.<\/p>\n<p>But while that may be the case, there&#8217;s actually already a <em>massive<\/em> WordPress industry covering this use:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Membership plugins<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to require users to pay or sign up in order to access certain pieces of content, you&#8217;re probably best off just using a dedicated membership site plugin.<\/p>\n<p>And, as luck would have it, we actually have an incredibly detailed <a href=\"https:\/\/wpshout.com\/build-a-membership-site-on-wordpress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">guide on how to create a membership site with WordPress<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If you really don&#8217;t want to deal with setting up a membership site, you can consider a plugin like <a href=\"https:\/\/mythemeshop.com\/plugins\/content-locker\/?ref=karol709\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Content Locker<\/a> to require users to sign up to view your content. And if you want a paywall, you can find some plugins like <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/leaky-paywall\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Leaky Paywall<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>But again &#8211; I think that, at least most of the time, a membership site is your best option for these two applications.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Wrapping things up<\/h2>\n<p>There you go &#8211; a few different ways to add content lockers to WordPress.<\/p>\n<p>If you want the flexibility to stack social content lockers and email opt-in content lockers together, then using the two options from OnePress is a great solution. They integrate together, so you can manage all of your content lockers from one place.<\/p>\n<p>And if you just want a lightweight option for social lockers, I think the plugin from Fatcat Apps is a great solution that gets rid of some of the unnecessary features from OnePass.<\/p>\n<p>Just remember &#8211; when you add content lockers to WordPress, you always want to make sure you&#8217;re not tanking your site&#8217;s user friendliness. That is, use content lockers judiciously.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<div class='ti-tweet-clear'><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class='ti-tweet_wrapper'>\n\t\t    \t<div class='ti-tweet_text'>\n\t\t    \t\t<a
