Question:
Is there a way to put the entire site behind an initial page which asks people to certify they are eligible to view the information. As in - we only want to serve the content to qualified investors. Someone comes to our homepage and we ask them to either:
- self-confirm that they are qualified to access the content. If then answer “yes”, then they can gain access to the rest of the site (we do not need them to login).
- send us their details via a form. We give them a call back manually and go through a set of questions. If they qualify, we send them a code (or similar) to be able to access the rest of the website.
Product:
Wix Editor, Wix Studio Editor, Editor X.
What are you trying to achieve:
As above in the “question” section. We are looking to only allow eligible people to access the content, but we don’t want these people to login as a member.
What have you already tried:
Tried to search for an answer and navigate options in the editor.
Additional information:
This functionality is quite standard on websites for financial services.

yes, that would be possible. Have a landing page with a log in button that redirects to the main home page that is password protected. or have another button to request access that links to a form on a lightbox.

If you don’t need them to login or create an account, then a lightbox should suffice.
But, the settings of the lightbox must be set to show on first page they visit.
BUT just know this is going to get very annoying because each time the same person comes back to the website, they WILL see this lightbox. Even if you code this, which you CAN code it, the lightbox will appear again after they clear their browser history or when browser history expires.
Member signup would be the easiest solution. You can have a generic home page with instructions of what info is needed or whatever. Every page besides the home page would be set to Members Only. You can do this via the page settings.
Then you could add a login/registration button.
Turn on custom registration so you can modify the questions and also turn on manual member approval via your registration settings. This way the admin gets notified someone wants to access the site and then you can do your manual process from there.
If you want something fancier, more intuitive or more efficient then hiring an experienced Velo developer would be your best route. This way you can plan the logic flow and code it on your own or have them code it for you.
