    I’ve create a new restriction in my site, for example for read the articles the user must be logged (this worked well).
    BUT the SEO isn’t correct.
    I use Yoast Seo, and for my articles I write a SEO for the web and for the social. Automatically if I share the articles in the web or in the social, doesn’t appeare the right SEO (write by me) but “Login in my site”
    What can i do?

    Simplified explanation of what happens when you share a link on a social media platform: The platform will send a bot to visit the link, grab some information, and then display that to the user.

    Restrict User Access does not change behavior for bots, so if you have created an Access Level and restricted content to logged-in users, a bot will not be able to see that. So this is why you see the “Login” message when sharing links to restricted pages.

    You can make it so bots (and any other unauthorized visitor) can see a teaser of your restricted content like this:

    1. Go to edit the Access Level in question
    2. Open the “Options” tab
    3. For the “Non-Member Action” option, select “Tease & Include”
    4. Save

    This should fix the problem you see on social media platforms. Any link that you have already shared that say “Login” may be cached by the platform for a while, so try to share another link after updating these settings.

    I hope this helps!
