Members-only pages and sections

Make a page, a sub-page, a blog post or a single section visible to members only, or to chosen member groups. Locked content never reaches the public page, the sitemap, llms.txt or the RSS feed.

Updated October 28, 2026

First turn on Memberships for the site: in the business app, Settings → Memberships → Sites. Then, in the editor:

A page

Pages → the page's ⋯ → Settings → Visibility:

  • Everyone: a normal public page.
  • Members only: any active member.
  • Specific groups: only members of the groups you tick.

Sub-pages follow their parent page, so a members-only "Team Hub" keeps "Practice plans" under it members-only too. Locked pages show a lock in the Pages panel and stay in the menu (use hide it from the menu if you'd rather they didn't).

A section

Select a section → Show to: Everyone, Members, Specific groups, or Only people who aren't logged in (for a "Join now" banner that members never see). Hidden sections are left out of the page for those visitors, never just hidden.

A blog post

In the post's settings, choose the same Visibility. Members-only posts aren't in the blog list, the RSS feed, the sitemap or llms.txt for visitors.

What visitors see

  • Not logged in: the site's log-in page with "This page is for members. Log in to see …, or join". The page isn't indexed.
  • Logged in but not a member (for example a store customer): "This page is for members" with Join, Ask to join (when you approve members) or nothing to press (invite only).
  • A member of the right group: the page.

Preview

The editor's View as (top bar) shows the page as a visitor, a logged-in customer, a member, or a member of a group, without logging in.

Zeus and AI assistants

Zeus in the editor can make a page or section members-only, add a "Join now" section and the Login / Account widget; it explains what visitors will see and asks you to confirm before anything is locked or unlocked. The AI assistant connection (MCP) has the same tools.
