BigCommerce Content Restrictions
Content Restrictions gives BigCommerce merchants a simple way to keep parts of their storefront private. Choose the paths you want to lock, whether category, product, CMS page or custom URL, and set a password. When a shopper opens a matching URL, a password prompt appears and the page content stays hidden until they enter the correct password.
Wildcard patterns and parent-path inheritance let one rule cover a whole section of your store, so new products and subcategories are protected automatically. Rules can apply to every channel or only selected storefronts, and once unlocked, access stays open in that browser for a period you choose.
Managing hundreds of private stores? Import and export restrictions in bulk by CSV instead of editing passwords one category at a time. No theme edits are needed: install the app, refresh the storefront script, and add your first rule.
