  • Only single role restriction

    Beyond some translation issues (such as the Portuguese word Sim in place of English "Yes"), the plugin is limited in scope to only a single role restriction per page. No ability to add multiple roles. Also, the default behavior is a redirect back to homepage with no warning messages or option to redirect user to different page (such as a special system message page explaining why the user cannot access content).
