SleekView Kanban for Restrict Content
Restrict Content tags each user with a role or a tag-based access flag that decides whether they can read protected content, with status values like Active, Pending, and Cancelled depending on the workflow you use. SleekView Kanban reads those rows and turns the access state into draggable columns, one card per member.

Read Restrict Content members as a board, not a users list
Restrict Content is the free tier from the RCP team. It does not ship the full rcp_memberships schema, but it does store member access state through WordPress roles and usermeta keys that mirror the same shape: an access tag, a registration date, and a flag that toggles content visibility. Sites running paid signups through Restrict Content typically wire it to a contact form or a simple Stripe link and use the access flag as the gate.
SleekView Kanban reads wp_users joined to wp_usermeta for the Restrict Content access keys and groups members by access state. Cards show display_name, registration date, source (form, manual grant, code), and any custom usermeta key your setup uses to track the tier. Filter by source, by registration window, by user role, or by any custom usermeta key.
Drag a card from Pending into Active and SleekView writes the access flag and assigns the appropriate WordPress role so the user immediately gains read access to protected content. Drag a card into Cancelled and the access flag clears so the user falls back to public content only. Because Restrict Content has no gateway of its own, writes do not call any payment APIs. They only update the WordPress role and usermeta, which is exactly the state the plugin checks at render time.

Comparison
Default Restrict Content screens vs SleekView Kanban
Default WP users + RC
- WordPress users screen does not show Restrict Content access flag or source as a column
- Granting or revoking access needs a per-user edit screen, no batch drag of pending members
- No card layout, so member, registration date, source, and role never sit on the same tile
- Pending sign ups blend into the broader users list rather than leading a review queue
- Manual invites and form signups look identical without opening each user to check usermeta
SleekView Kanban
- Reads WordPress roles and Restrict Content usermeta live, no external sync needed
- Drag-and-drop writes assign roles and flip access flags through standard WP APIs
- Filter by access source, registration date, user role, or any custom usermeta key
- Card meta supports computed values, e.g. days inactive for dormant-member cleanup
- Per-role visibility so only roles with manage_options can move cards between states
Features
What SleekView Kanban gives you for Restrict Content
Access state writes back through WP
Dragging into Active assigns the configured WordPress role and flips the Restrict Content access flag through standard WordPress functions. Dragging into Cancelled clears the flag and demotes the role. No gateway APIs are involved because Restrict Content has none.
Filter by source and signup window
Stack filters for access source, registration date window, user role, or any custom usermeta key your setup uses to track tier. Save filter sets per board so a review queue, a dormant-user board, and a manual-invite board each open scoped correctly.
Member context on each card
Card titles show display_name. Meta lines show registration date, access source, current role, and any custom usermeta you choose. Click a card to open the standard WordPress user edit screen for the full profile without losing the board state.
Audience
Where Restrict Content sites put the Kanban board
Signup review queue
A Pending column lists every new signup. The site owner reads each card, verifies the signup source, and drags into Active to grant the role or into Cancelled if the signup looks like spam.
Manual invite tracking
Manual invites land in Pending with a clear invite-source badge. The community manager works the column card by card, sending the access link and dragging accepted invites into Active once the user accepts.
Dormant member cleanup
Active members not seen in 180 days surface at the top of the column via a sort on last_login usermeta. The admin reviews and drags genuinely dormant accounts into Cancelled to keep the active list clean.
The bigger picture
Why the kanban view matters for Restrict Content
Restrict Content is intentionally simple. There is no paid-subscription schema, no gateway integration, no recurring billing engine. Just a content gate driven by WordPress roles and a small set of usermeta keys.
That simplicity makes the default admin surface even thinner than its paid cousin. Sites using Restrict Content typically run a signup form, an email invite list, and a small core of paid invites managed by hand. The operator questions are still status questions.
Who signed up this week and needs a manual review. Who has been dormant long enough to drop. Which invites are still outstanding.
A kanban view groups members by access state and shows those answers on one screen with one card per member, even on a free tier without any subscription tables. Because writes go through standard WordPress role assignments and usermeta updates, the board never falls out of sync with what Restrict Content actually checks at render time.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView Kanban for Restrict Content
Yes. The board uses WordPress roles plus the Restrict Content usermeta keys as its data source, so it works on the free tier without the paid rcp_memberships schema. Sites that later upgrade to Restrict Content Pro can switch to the full schema without losing their board configuration.
 By default the derived states Active, Pending, and Cancelled become columns. Build additional columns if your site uses a manual invite workflow, a Dormant state computed from last_login, or any other custom access tag you store in usermeta.
 Yes. Active assignments use the WordPress set_role API to give the user the configured role for that access state. Cancelled clears the role back to subscriber or to your configured default. The Restrict Content access flag flips in lockstep so content gating stays correct.
 Yes. Card meta reads any usermeta key your setup writes during signup. Common keys are signup source, referrer URL, and original campaign tag. These render directly on the card so reviewers see context without opening the user profile.
 Yes. SleekView paginates each column with a configurable card limit and uses indexed user queries with usermeta joins. Column counts cache per filter set so even five-figure user counts stay responsive on the board without manual cache management.
 Yes. SleekView locks an individual card during the in-flight write so two admins cannot accidentally race the same role change. Once the write completes the card releases and the new state appears on every connected board within seconds.
 Yes. If your signup form writes usermeta during submission, the board reads it immediately, so new signups land in Pending without any additional configuration. The board does not require a specific form plugin.
 No. The board does not modify Restrict Content code or hook into its gating logic. It only writes the same WordPress role and usermeta that Restrict Content already checks. Content protection continues to work exactly as configured in the Restrict Content settings.
