Shopify themes, liquid, logos, and UX
Is it possible to allow customers to access to some specific pages?
For example, customers can access to landing page, and product page that is linked from landing page as well as cart and checkout pages while they see "Coming soon page" on other pages like Q&A page?
Thank you

This is access control, content gating, membership, wholesale ,etc type of customization often done using customer tags.
Plenty of topics in the forums available through search.
There are also apps like locksmith for such needs.

Thank you for your answer!
I searched a bit more deeply and found that for now adding some code in `theme.liquid` would be enough for my case.
I added the code like:
{% if request.path != "/path-to-prrevent-access" %}
<script>window.location.href="redirect-url"</script>
{% endif %}
Note that will not work if someone has javascript disabled.
Javascript redirects should be done as a fallback for meta-refresh redirects in a html documents <head>
Additionally that still doesn't prevent the original content from being rendered and thus viewable until the javascript executes.
In theme.liquid there is a {{ content_for_layout }} that should also have similar logic adjusted for when it's not the frontpage or other situations mean to be viewable by non-logged in customers.

Those are server level redirects, 301's, meant for permanent page moves and changes in url structure.
There will be no logic you can apply to let someone see the initial urls content before the redirect.

Well my case is to allow all customers to buy the product.
But due to time restrictions to build an entire store, I would like just to let customers access a product page and a few others necessary to buy the product.
So I don't really need any complex logics like switching on customer status or something but I just want to prevent customers from accessing pages which aren't ready for them.
(I have just created a landing page for the product, where customers will access it from a QR code on a sample product they will have got by then and from there they will access to my Shopify store and buy the product if they want to.)
So in that case, which do you think is better meta-refresh redirects or server-level redirects?
The main way to handle that is to not publish a resource(page, collection,blog,product,etc) to the online-sales channel.
And only link to those pages in menus so it's not obvious if there are other pages.
