Forces all users (except admins) to agree to your Terms and Conditions on first login and anytime you choose to make them accept new terms. Alternatively require terms agreement when commenting, or before accessing specified front-end pages. 

== Description ==
= Require users to accept your Terms and Conditions in several different ways: =
* On signup page
* When submitting a comment
* When submitting any [Formidable](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/formidable/ "Formidable") form
* Before accessing specified pages in the back- or front-end

In the back-end, this plugin presents all users except admins with your terms and conditions the first time they login. The Admin menu is hidden until they accept your terms if the option to require agreement on 'All Admin pages' is selected. Existing users and those added in the admin will also need to agree to the Terms and Conditions on their next log in. After the terms are accepted, users are presented with a fully customizable welcome message to help them get started using WordPress.

In the front-end, whether users are logged in or not, they must agree before gaining permission to view the specified page(s). If not logged in, the agreement date and initials are saved to a cookie.

= Features =
* Fully customizable Terms and Conditions, Privacy Policy and welcome message.
* No changes need to be made to the Sign up process.
* Existing users can agree to terms.
* Users can view the terms at any time.
* The date the user agreed is displayed on the profile page with a link to the terms.
* Option to require user initials on agreement.
* Option to require terms agreement on comment form in WordPress version 2.9 and above.
* Option to clear all agreement dates when the terms are changed so users will need to reaccept terms.
* Option to show agreement date on profile.
* Shortcode `[terms-of-use]` for use in pages or posts
* Select a front-end page to protect. If user is not logged in, a cookie will be set when terms are accepted.
