Bouncer Documentation
Access rules for content and the files behind it
Installation
Requirements, install, and the two settings worth knowing before the first rule.
Writing a rule
Target, access and response — and why multiple rules combine with AND.
Where it is enforced
One verdict, four doors — and what is deliberately not guarded.
Responses
Login, redirect, template, password, 403 or 404 — and how to choose.
Protecting files
The guarded route, transforms, Range requests, server hand-off and signed links. Pro.
The exposure audit
Rewriting a URL is not sealing a file. This checks, and hands you the fix. Pro.
Twig API
Paywalls, teasers, verdicts, signed links, and opting a query out of the filter.
Console commands
audit, rules/test and friends — and which two belong in a deploy check.
Configuration
The settings that change behaviour, and the two that get you out of trouble.
Permissions
Who can edit the rules, and who is never refused by them.
Editions
Lite, Pro, and why this plugin fails closed when a licence lapses.
Troubleshooting
Locked out, 404s, leaking listings, and rules that refuse the people they name.
FAQ
How Bouncer differs from content-gating plugins, and the questions worth asking first.
