## ማብራሪያ

Whatever your reasons, you may need your site’s visitors to confirm their age before
viewing the content of your site. Age Verify does just that. It’s a simple plugin
that lets you specify a minimum age and add an age-gate between a potential visitor
and your content, just to be safe. Enjoy!

Had to stop using it once my site got more busy since PHP based age gate isn’t compatible
with cache plugins. But if you’re not planning to cache, this works fine

Like my review on another similar plugin, because this plugin uses PHP to check 
cookies, it doesn’t work with cached pages…such as with the W3 Total Cache plugin
or WP Engine.

My customers see it on every visit to the page even if within the time frame the
plugin is set for. Support board is never answered by anyone even though there are
active topics. Plugin looks to be abandoned as it hasn’t been checked for latest
compatibility.

Works very well. Had issues in Internet Explorer, but figured them out. Does have
some weird dashes it adds to the separation of the drop downs… and it kicks out 
an odd query field for a home page landing URL… which might not be good with SEO
or Google. Doing research.

The only thing that’s missing for me is a couple of templates to make the form look
better.

I am so happy to have found this plug-in. It works on my hosted WordPress site and
does everything I need it to do. I found that it reflects our page’s style and works
on mobile.
