Voltori Gate is a fullscreen password gate for your WordPress homepage. Turn it on from your dashboard, set a shared access key, choose the redirect URL, and brand the welcome message with your name or studio. Perfect for private betas, client-only portals, and “members-only” front doors—without the complexity of full membership plugins.
Put a cinematic, neon-styled “vault door” in front of your site’s homepage and only let people in when they have the key.
Voltori Gate is a lightweight WordPress plugin that adds a fullscreen password gate to your front page, controlled entirely from your WordPress dashboard. Flip it on, set your access password, choose where visitors land after they unlock, and customize the welcome title with your brand name.

What Voltori Gate Does
Voltori Gate intercepts your site’s homepage and replaces it with a sleek, full-screen access screen:
- Visitors see a Voltori-styled fullscreen background and a glowing login card.
- They must enter the access key (password) you set.
- Once correct, the plugin drops a secure cookie and redirects them to the URL you choose (typically your homepage or a custom landing page).
- For a period of time, they can browse normally without seeing the gate again.
It’s a simple, elegant way to:
- Soft-lock your site for clients, testers, or private audiences
- Give your SaaS, studio, or agency site a “members only” front door vibe
- Stage a “coming soon” / private beta experience without heavy membership plugins
Who It’s For
Perfect for:
- Studios & agencies who want to send a private link to select clients
- Founders & devs running a private beta or staging environment
- Event pages & screenings that should only be visible to invited guests
- Under-construction sites that still need to be live for a controlled audience
If you’ve ever thought “I just want a simple, sexy password gate on the homepage” — this is exactly that.
1. Fullscreen Password Gate (Homepage Only)
- Replaces your root URL (
https://yourdomain.com) with a full-screen access page - Visitors must enter the access key to proceed
- Once approved, they’re redirected to the URL you configure
2. Clean, Minimal Settings in the WordPress Dashboard
Accessible under Settings → Voltori Gate, you can control:
- Enable Gate
- One checkbox to turn the gate on or off
- Access Password
- The shared access key visitors must enter
- Change as often as you like
- Redirect URL After Login
- Decide where users land after successful entry
- Common choices: homepage, special landing page, client page, etc.
- Welcome Title (Brand Name)
- Customize the headline text (e.g., “Welcome to Voltori”, “Welcome to Sunscope Studios”)
- Instantly brands the gate screen to your company or project
3. Secure Cookie Logic
- Once a visitor correctly enters the password, Voltori Gate sets a hashed cookie to remember them
- This prevents them from having to re-enter the password on every page load
- Keeps the gate experience smooth while still providing a strong first barrier
4. Opinionated Cinematic Design
- Ships with a Voltori-styled neon fullscreen layout out of the box
- Blurred, full-browser background image with a glowing card in the center
- Retro monospace typography and minimal UI for a tech-cinematic look
- Advanced users can override the styling via custom CSS if needed
5. Lightweight & Focused
- No bloated framework, no external JS dependencies
- Uses core WordPress settings API and basic PHP
- Designed to do one thing extremely well: gate your homepage behind a shared access password
