I'm confused about blocking access to certain pages with the Membership plugin

Hi,

I’m setting up membership rules on a client’s website.

http://yoga4arthritis.com/

I’ve created a new menu-item called ‘Members’, and am hiding displaying that by setting the Access Level rules.

I’ve since added 3 temporary sub-pages beneath it (member page 1, member page 2 and member page 3).

http://yoga4arthritis.com/members/member-page-3/

All looked good until I tried to access the pages from their URLs. I expected not to be able to do that, but the pages are being displayed.

What I am doing wrong? Is there a way of blocking pages for non-members, even if they know the URLs?

Is it that you have to use the shortcodes around the content that you don’t want non-members to be able to see?

Thanks in advance,

Robert Ford

    Hi @fordrm

    Thanks for posting!

    Do you have any content on those pages? If you do, I don’t see it.

    There is a lot to go through here so it might be quicker if you can give me access and I’ll have a look around myself then give you my thoughts.

    Can you send details so that I can log in to your website and have a look?
