Disable content permissions being applied to child pages?

    Is it possible to disable the behaviour whereby child pages seem to inherit the content permissions of parent pages?

    I want logged out users to be able to access a child page. But this doesn’t seem to be possible unless the parent page is also accessible to logged out users.

    Hi @silvercode

    Unfortunately, child page share content permissions from their parent and we don’t have any workaround at the moment.

    Don’t know why they replied saying it isn’t possible because it is. They wrote a function for it 8 years ago, which we found in their code and on their Github.

    Read it here: https://github.com/justintadlock/members/issues/48

    Or basically just add this to your functions.php file:

    // Disable the Members plugin from checking parent post permissions
    add_filter(‘members_check_parent_post_permission’, ‘__return_false’);
