| Description | Feature suggestion: customisable entry gates.
Some websites have 'splash pages' or 'overlays' which appear when someone visits the site for the first time (or if no cookie exists). For example, there might be an overlay for an adult website which will require the visitor to confirm that they are of a certain age before they can enter the website. Another example would be a notice about cookie storage. Composr should have its own 'entry gates' system. Different 'gates' could be defined in the Admin Zone and applied individually to Composr Zones (or 'all' zones). They should also be assigned to different user groups, so the site owner can choose to only show them to certain people (e.g. only show guests a message about special offers of joining). When a visitor dismisses a gate, it should be recorded in a cookie and not displayed again for that visitor. (Possibly tie it into the member system and store it that way too?) Possible uses: - age confirmation - displaying important/emergency information - showing cookie storage information (i.e. for the EU Regulation) |

Comments
JS/HTML/CSS can be used to fade out the main site when the overlay is open.
Hard restrictions like 'age gates' are too specific for Composr, would have to be custom functionality or an addon.
