Uncategorized Category Is Always Protected

Hello @itesla

In your first option (when all site is protected). Your main page – is a blog page?

Thank you.

Not sure what you mean?
The home page is not Blog page, the Blog page was set to posts page in WP settings.
In main menu i was adding the link of the Blog page, I changed the link to the Category (Blog) itself and now it is not blocked as I wanted.

There seems some issue with Blog page when is set to posts page in WP settings, I wanted to make it public so viewers can see what posts are new but can’t access them.

Hi @itesla

I checked my local site and i haven’t this issue. Could you send me screenshot of your settings?

Thank you.

Hi @itesla

try to visit not post page but category page (please see a screenshot – https://we.tl/t-8AbBAU5oXV).

Thank you.

Already did that before you first reply to this topic, you can see my second reply, you did not tell what is the root problem of this issue, it is a bug or it meant to be like this.

Thanks for trying for help.

P.s. I not see any screenshot in your link but a website.

Hi @itesla

I send you link to wetransfer – https://we.tl/t-8AbBAU5oXV.

I checked my site with your settings and I haven’t this issue when I visit not blog page but category page (like on the screenshot).

Thank you.

Hi @itesla

I think I understand you. Your blog page restriction not working correctly. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I need time to research.

It works for category, but it does not work to not restrict the blog page when it is set to posts page in WP settings, this page is useful because it is like an activity page to show new posts. I wanted to make it visible to non members so they will see what is new but not be able to view the blog post, they will need to register to view posts.
Simple as that.

Hello @itesla

Try to add this code (to your functions.php file in your child theme or with PHP code snippet plugin):

add_action( 'template_redirect', 'um_change_restrict', 10 );
function um_change_restrict() {
    global $wp_query;
	if ( isset( $wp_query ) && (bool) $wp_query->is_posts_page ) {
		remove_action( 'um_access_check_global_settings', array( UM()->access(), 'um_access_check_global_settings' ) );
	}
}

Thank you.

I have add the code and it worked, thank you!

Maybe there is a bug of why this page is remaining protected.
