Conditional Role Based Redirect allows administrators to create flexible redirect rules based on user login status and roles.

== Description ==

Conditional Role Based Redirect Manager is a lightweight yet powerful WordPress plugin that lets you control how visitors are redirected across your site based on their authentication status and user roles.

With an intuitive interface located under the Tools menu, site administrators can easily manage redirect rules for logged-in users, logged-out users, or all visitors. The plugin is designed to be extensible, making it ideal for growing websites that require advanced redirect logic.

Perfect for membership sites, gated content, client portals, and role-specific experiences.
