Content Gating and Password Protection in Webstudio
Content Gating and Password Protection in Webstudio
At a glance
The community member who posted the original question is wondering if Webstudio will have some form of authentication or content gating, such as password protecting pages, in the future. The comments suggest that authentication should be handled by the backend, and that there are many existing solutions available that could be integrated with Webstudio, rather than building custom authentication. Some community members note that Webstudio may not be primarily for building apps, but that the definition of an "app" is broad, and that features like authentication could be useful even for simpler websites or online shops.
This is more of a question rather than a suggestion. I don’t see it in roadmap but way way down the line, will there be some sort of Auth or method for gating content using Webstudio itself? For example password protecting pages.
Hmm. I suppose that makes sense given that Webstudio isn’t really for apps. Can probably make a use case to have some sort of HTTP Basic Auth but at the same time I can see why it isn’t really a necessity. I don’t have a Pro plan yet so haven’t been able to experiment but thanks for chiming in Oleg!
