Product & Category Setup

In addition to global CMS page rules, the Age Restriction extension allows you to apply restrictions directly to specific catalog products and categories.

Restricting Individual Products

You can enforce age verification on specific products (such as adult items, alcoholic beverages, or tobacco) without locking down your entire store.

Step-by-Step Configuration

  1. In the Magento Admin Panel, navigate to Catalog > Products.
  2. Select and edit the target product.
  3. In the product edit screen, find the Age Verification toggle attribute (product_age_verification).
  4. Toggle the switch to Yes (or select Yes if displayed as a dropdown).
  5. Click Save in the top right corner.

Note

When Display on Products is set to Yes in System Configuration, visiting a restricted product page triggers the age verification modal. If an unverified user attempts to add the item directly to their cart, the Cart plugin blocks the request.

Restricting Catalog Categories

When you restrict a category, any customer navigating to that category listing page or catalog search result within that category will be prompted to verify their age.

Step-by-Step Configuration

  1. In the Magento Admin Panel, navigate to Catalog > Categories.
  2. Select the category from the category tree on the left.
  3. In the General Information section, locate the Age Verification toggle (category_age_varification).
  4. Set the toggle to Yes.
  5. Click Save to apply changes.

Recommendation

Setting age verification on a parent category protects its category view page. For full protection of individual product detail pages, ensure the product-level attribute is also enabled on sensitive products.

Restricting Specific CMS Pages

To restrict CMS pages (e.g., Homepage, Promotional Landing Pages, Blog, or Content pages):

  1. Navigate to Stores > Configuration > Webkul > Age Verification.
  2. Under Display Settings, ensure Display on CMS Pages is set to Yes.
  3. In the Select CMS Pages multiselect list, select one or more CMS pages (hold Ctrl or Cmd to select multiple pages).
  4. Click Save Config and flush the cache (bin/magento cache:clean config full_page).
