Hello beautiful people.

I have a small Wordpress blog not really belonging to a specific niche. Instead it's a lot of different topics.
I have a few downloadable files, but I would rather have them being freely available without surveys - or maybe add those at a later stage.

Is there any way to let my main-page being open - but in order to read any of my articles/entries - people will have to complete a survey.
I have done a lot of searches, but haven't found a solution to this issue. :)

this is a easy fix. you main page can still be accesible and lock you post pages etc.

get your content lock script, copy it. now go to appearcence>editor>single.php or post.php its one of those names, and paste it their right after the header info.

now this will only lock your pages and your main homepage will be untouched.
 
You could also add this to your header.php file
Code: 
<?php if(is_single()) : ?>
Locker code
<?php endif; ?>
 
Thanks. :)
I'll try it out and let you know if I run into any problems. :)
 
God damnit. I left out the important part. I wasn't in a hurry, so no idea why I fucked up :/
Well. The idea of the above mention lock is - that whenevery they click on an article - CPA lock should pop up - whenever they've finished it - it should stay unlocked until they close and open the browser. Maybe using sessions. I know WP doesn't use sessions or states by default, but it's a pretty straight-forward process.

Is there any known method to implement the content locker using sessions? :)

You could change the unlock time on your locker to 5 minutes so they will basically have to complete a survey every time they visit your page

Is this working client-side, so that every new visitor needs to complete the survey, or is it server-side - making the site open for Every visitor for 5 minutes.
I'm sorry for the stupid question, I'm fairly new to content locking and CPA in general.

it will lock every new visitor, so no one will be getting your content for free till they unlock your locker.
 
You can try social locker to lock your files or website.
But locking your entire website won't be a good option as most people hate to see such things as soon as they visit.
 
CPA lead have a plugin to go with Wordpress and you can choose how long the content stays unlocked.
 
#Chap:
Thanks.

#Roshaen:
I am playing with the idea of having people either complete a CPA survey Or Sharing to unlock.
I know it isn't optimal, but I would like to have the option, so I'll see how it goes. I can always change it back.
I just thought it would be better if people only had to complete 1 survey instead of 1 for every article.

#Teh:
Nope. And I honestly had not heard of it before you mentioned it. It looks cheap, and might come in handy.

#ChE:
I'm on another network, but as I might have to test out a couple of more, it might be a good idea to apply.
 
Wordpress allows your home page to be a custom page, where the others are post pages.

Add the locker to a text widget that is not on the home page. Only add the locker text widget to post pages....
