Step 3

The Age Verification page comes with six pre-built customization options, allowing you to personalize every section of the age verification gate. Read on to find out how to use each of those options.

Enable Age Verification

The Enable Age Verification switch allows you to easily enable or disable the age verification gate for first-time visitors. By default, the option is set to Enabled, as shown below.

Enable Age Verification Switch

If you wish to disable the age verification window, simply toggle the switch off and press Save Changes.

Disable Age Verification

From then on, the age verification gate will be disabled, and it will not be shown to anyone on your site.

Please note that you will be able to personalize the age verification gate only if the toggle is set to Enabled. Disabling the toggle will remove all customization settings.

Content

Next, you can edit the age verification gate’s content using the Content section, which employs a standard text editor that supports numerous features, including, but not limited to, text formatting, media files, and links.
