BaqFlo – RedAction
Control How and When Visitors See Your Content
BaqFlo RedAction gives you a flexible way to visually obscure selected content, reveal it through visitor interactions and display polished destination notices across your WordPress website.
Create a reusable Redaction Rule once, target content with familiar CSS selectors, then apply the same behaviour wherever it is needed. Blur text or images, place a cover over selected content, visually replace or remove elements, or invite visitors to reveal protected-looking content with a click or popup message.
RedAction also includes reusable Destination Redactions for coming-soon pages, temporary notices, announcements, maintenance messages and intercepted links.
Designed to be practical, reusable and easy to manage, RedAction helps you create thoughtful content experiences without rebuilding the same setup on every page.
Why Choose RedAction?
Reusable Redaction Rules
Create a rule once and reuse it across multiple pages, posts and site areas. Update the rule later and every matching location follows the same settings.
Flexible CSS Selector Targeting
Target headings, paragraphs, images, buttons, containers or complete page sections using standard CSS selectors.
Interactive Click-to-Reveal
Let visitors reveal one item, reveal every item matched by the same rule, or confirm their choice through a popup message before content becomes visible.
Gutenberg Toolbar Integration
Apply Redaction Rules directly while editing supported Gutenberg text content, without manually adding selector classes.
Reusable Destination Notices
Create styled notices for coming-soon pages, maintenance periods, temporary restrictions, announcements and intercepted destination links.
Scheduling Built In
Set visual rules and destination notices to activate or expire automatically at the date and time you choose.

Visual Redaction, Clearly Explained
The free edition uses browser-based visual redaction. Matching content can be covered, blurred, replaced or visually removed, but the original content remains in the delivered page source.
This makes RedAction Lite a strong choice for presentation, interaction and controlled disclosure. It should not be used as a security system for confidential information.

Built by BaqFlo
RedAction is part of the growing BaqFlo family of WordPress plugins.
Our goal is simple: build professional WordPress plugins that are fast, thoughtfully designed and genuinely enjoyable to use.
Development Notes
RedAction is written in plain PHP, JavaScript and CSS without a JavaScript build process. The files included in the plugin package are the original human-readable source files. Some CSS used by the live animation preview is intentionally assembled inside assets/js/admin.js so the preview can reflect the selected timing and easing settings at runtime.
