Transform Your WordPress Site with Email Domain Restriction

Are you ready to transform your WordPress site from a free-for-all into an exclusive, high-value community or a secure, members-only portal?

Imagine a world where every new registration on your WordPress site isn't a gamble, but a guarantee. A world where spam bots, unqualified leads, and unauthorized access are relics of the past. A world where your membership site, educational platform, corporate intranet, or B2B store operates with precision, security, and unparalleled efficiency.

For too long, managing user registrations on WordPress has been a balancing act. You want to grow, but you also need to protect. You want to welcome, but you also need to screen. The open nature of WordPress, while its greatest strength, can also be its Achilles' heel when it comes to maintaining a curated user base.

The Unseen Costs of Unrestricted Access: Are You Paying the Price?

Think about it. Every day, countless WordPress sites grapple with a silent, insidious threat: unqualified or malicious registrations.

  • For Membership Sites: Are you constantly sifting through sign-ups from generic email addresses, wondering if they're truly committed members or just casual browsers looking for a free peek? Is your exclusive content being accessed by those who haven't earned the right? The integrity of your community, and ultimately your revenue, depends on who gets in.

  • For Educational Institutions: Are you struggling to ensure that only enrolled students with valid .edu email addresses can access your learning resources, forums, and internal communications? The administrative overhead of manually verifying each registrant is a drain on precious time and resources, and unauthorized access can compromise sensitive information.

  • For Corporate Intranets: Is your internal communication platform, project management hub, or employee directory open to anyone with an internet connection? The thought of non-employees gaining access to proprietary information is a security nightmare waiting to happen. Maintaining a truly private, secure environment for your team is paramount.

  • For B2B Platforms & WooCommerce Stores: Are you losing valuable time and resources chasing down "leads" from free email providers, only to discover they're not legitimate businesses? Is your wholesale pricing or exclusive product catalog accessible to the general public, undermining your business model? You need to ensure every B2B interaction starts with a verified business email.

  • For Private Communities: The very essence of a private community is exclusivity. How do you maintain that when anyone can register? The influx of irrelevant users can dilute the quality of discussions, deter genuine members, and turn your vibrant community into a chaotic forum.

These aren't just minor inconveniences; they are significant challenges that impact your site's security, data integrity, community quality, administrative burden, and ultimately, your bottom line. You're wasting time, resources, and potentially exposing your valuable assets to risk.

Imagine a Different Reality...

What if you could set the rules, and your WordPress site automatically enforced them? What if you could instantly identify and block unwanted registrations, while seamlessly welcoming your ideal users? What if you could transform your open-door policy into a secure, velvet-rope experience, all without writing a single line of code?

Introducing Email Domain Restriction: Your Digital Bouncer for WordPress

Email Domain Restriction isn't just another plugin; it's your ultimate gatekeeper, your digital bouncer, and your secret weapon for cultivating a high-quality, secure, and exclusive WordPress environment. It's the intelligent solution that empowers you to define exactly who can register on your site, based on their email domain.

What do I get for FREE?

That's a great question! These are the features you get with the free version:

  • Precision Domain Whitelisting: Define exactly which email domains are permitted to register. Whether it's `mycompany.com`, `university.edu`, or a specific partner's domain, you have granular control. Need to allow all subdomains of a corporate client? Our wildcard patterns like `*.client.com` make it effortless. This means you dictate the terms, and your site automatically enforces them, ensuring only trusted entities can join.

  • Seamless WordPress & Ultimate Member Integration: Email Domain Restriction works out-of-the-box with standard WordPress registration forms and integrates flawlessly with Ultimate Member, one of the most popular membership plugins. This ensures that your domain restrictions are applied consistently across your primary registration points, without requiring any complex setup or custom coding.

  • Basic Analytics Dashboard: Gain immediate visibility into your registration attempts. See at a glance who's trying to get in and from where. This foundational insight helps you understand patterns and potential threats, empowering you to refine your domain rules proactively.

  • Registration Attempt Logging: Every registration attempt, whether successful or blocked, is meticulously logged. This provides a clear audit trail, allowing you to review who tried to register, when, and from which domain. It's invaluable for troubleshooting, security reviews, and understanding user behavior.

  • Export Domain List: Easily export your whitelisted domains for backup, review, or migration. Your meticulously crafted domain rules are always accessible and portable.

  • Custom Error Messages: Don't just block users; inform them professionally. Craft custom error messages that explain why a registration was denied and, if appropriate, guide them on how to proceed (e.g., "Please register with your corporate email address"). This enhances user experience and maintains your brand's professional image.

  • Intuitive Admin Dashboard with Statistics: A clean, easy-to-navigate dashboard provides a quick overview of your plugin's activity, statistics, and settings. You're always in control, with all the essential information at your fingertips.

The free version is a game-changer for many, providing essential control and peace of mind. But what if you need more? What if your site demands advanced automation, deeper integrations, and unparalleled intelligence to truly thrive?

What if I need more?

For those who demand the absolute best in security, automation, and insight, the PRO version of Email Domain Restriction is your indispensable partner. It takes the foundational power of the free version and amplifies it with advanced features designed to meet the most sophisticated needs of membership sites, educational institutions, corporate intranets, and B2B platforms.

  • WooCommerce Integration: Secure Your B2B & Wholesale Operations

    • Problem Solved: Tired of unqualified customers accessing wholesale pricing or making purchases on your B2B store?

    • Transformation: With PRO, Email Domain Restriction integrates directly into your WooCommerce checkout and My Account registration. You can validate domains during checkout, ensuring that only legitimate businesses with approved email addresses can complete purchases or register for wholesale accounts. Activate "B2B mode" to automatically enforce business-only registrations, blocking free email providers and ensuring every transaction is with a verified entity. Imagine a B2B store owner, once plagued by fraudulent orders and unqualified leads, now effortlessly processing orders exclusively from verified business clients.

  • BuddyPress Integration: Forge Exclusive Communities

    • Problem Solved: Struggling to maintain the exclusivity and quality of your private BuddyPress community?

    • Transformation: Control community access with unparalleled precision. Automatically assign specific member types based on a user's email domain, instantly categorizing and onboarding them into the right groups. Restrict access to certain BuddyPress groups based on domain, ensuring only authorized members can participate in sensitive discussions or projects. Your community manager can now effortlessly curate a vibrant, private network, knowing every member belongs.

  • Role-Based Domain Mapping: Automate User Permissions

    • Problem Solved: Spending countless hours manually assigning WordPress roles to new users based on their company or institution?

    • Transformation: This feature is a massive time-saver. Automatically assign specific WordPress roles (e.g., "Premium Member," "Student," "Employee," "Wholesale Buyer") to users based on their email domain, with full wildcard support. A new user from `enterprise.com` can instantly be granted the "Enterprise Client" role, unlocking specific content and capabilities, all without any manual intervention. This streamlines onboarding, enhances security, and ensures users always have the correct permissions from day one.

  • Advanced Analytics Dashboard: Visualize Your Data, Drive Decisions

    • Problem Solved: Basic analytics give you a glimpse, but you need deeper insights to truly understand your user base and identify trends.

    • Transformation: Our beautiful Chart.js-powered dashboard provides stunning visualizations. Dive into time-series data to spot registration trends, analyze funnels to understand user journeys, and explore geography to see where your registrants are coming from (or being blocked). This isn't just data; it's actionable intelligence that helps you refine your strategy, identify potential threats, and optimize your site's growth. Discover new market opportunities or pinpoint the origin of a spam attack with unprecedented clarity.

  • Email Validation APIs: Real-Time Email Hygiene

    • Problem Solved: Even whitelisted domains can have invalid or disposable emails, leading to bounce rates and poor data quality.

    • Transformation: Integrate with industry-leading email validation services like ZeroBounce, Kickbox, Hunter.io, and NeverBounce. Get real-time validation during registration, ensuring that not only is the domain whitelisted, but the email address itself is valid, deliverable, and not a disposable address. This drastically reduces bounce rates, improves the quality of your user list, and keeps your communication channels clean and effective.

  • Rate Limiting: Combat Spam and Brute-Force Attacks

    • Problem Solved: Persistent spam bots and malicious actors can overwhelm your registration forms, impacting site performance and security.

    • Transformation: Configure intelligent rate limits based on domain or IP address, preventing floods of registration attempts. Set cooldown periods to deter automated attacks and ensure your site remains responsive and secure. Sleep soundly knowing that your site is protected against spam and brute-force attempts, maintaining optimal performance for your legitimate users.

  • Geolocation Restrictions: Control Access by Country

    • Problem Solved: Need to comply with regional regulations or simply want to restrict access to specific geographical areas?

    • Transformation: Allow or block registrations from specific countries. This is invaluable for educational institutions with regional licensing, B2B platforms targeting specific markets, or any site needing to adhere to geo-specific compliance requirements. Ensure your user base aligns perfectly with your operational boundaries.

  • Webhook Notifications: Automate Your Workflow

    • Problem Solved: Manual data transfer and delayed notifications hinder your operational efficiency.

    • Transformation: Set up HTTP webhooks with HMAC security to instantly notify other systems of registration attempts or successes. Integrate seamlessly with powerful automation platforms like Zapier and Make (formerly Integromat) to trigger actions in your CRM, marketing automation tools, or internal communication systems. Get real-time alerts, automate onboarding sequences, and reduce manual tasks, creating a truly interconnected ecosystem.

  • CSV/PDF Export & Scheduling: Professional Reporting at Your Fingertips

    • Problem Solved: Need to present data to stakeholders or maintain records for compliance, but manual data compilation is tedious

    • Transformation: Export your registration data, audit logs, and analytics into professional CSV or PDF reports. Even better, schedule these reports to be automatically generated and delivered to your inbox or cloud storage, ensuring you always have up-to-date insights for compliance, security audits, or performance reviews. Impress your team and stakeholders with clean, insightful reports.

  • Domain Groups: Simplify Complex Management

    • Problem Solved: Managing a large number of whitelisted domains can become cumbersome and prone to errors.

    • Transformation: Organize your domains into logical groups. This is perfect for sites with multiple departments, partner organizations, or different tiers of access. Manage your rules with greater clarity and efficiency, making complex setups feel simple and intuitive.

  • Audit Logging: Complete Traceability for Compliance and Security

    • Problem Solved: Need a comprehensive record of all actions related to your domain restrictions for compliance or security investigations?

    • Transformation: The PRO version provides a complete, immutable audit trail of every configuration change, every registration attempt, and every action taken by the plugin.
