 * Hello,
 * I have a protected members area on the website. After login with access data 
   I get to the event page of The Events Calendar, [https://www.mydomain.de/events](https://www.mydomain.de/events).
   From there I get to the respective page with the event and registration.
 * The member area is, as mentioned, protected.
 * But not the permalinks [https://www.mydomain.de/events](https://www.mydomain.de/events)
   and [https://www.mydomain.de/event/myevent](https://www.mydomain.de/event/myevent).
 * Normal pages I can protect by an option when editing the pages (set up by the
   members area plugin) so that the permalink of the page is protected, access is
   denied and login is forced.
 * Only I can’t protect the above two permalinks of The Events Calendar, I can’t
   find the events page at all. And so the members area is protected, but every 
   hacker gets with the pure permalinks to the events pages and thus into the (!)
   members area.
 * Greetings from Hamburg

 * Hi [@thobie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thobie/)
 * Thanks for reaching out! How are you creating protected content? With a third-
   party plugin?
 * There are a few different ways in which you can create protected content with
   The Events Calendar:
    – With Virtual Events: [https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/security-and-protected-content-for-virtual-events/](https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/security-and-protected-content-for-virtual-events/)–
   With Event Tickets shortcodes: [https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/embedding-protected-content/](https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/embedding-protected-content/)–
   With a third-party plugin like this: [https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/integrating-ultimate-member-with-the-events-calendar/](https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/integrating-ultimate-member-with-the-events-calendar/)
   or this: [https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/integrating-restrict-content-pro-with-the-events-calendar/](https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/integrating-restrict-content-pro-with-the-events-calendar/)
 * I hope that helps!
 * Thanks,
    Jaime

 * Hello, Jamie,
 * thank you for your help and the links.
 * I don’t want to install a paid plugin for the protection.
 * I yet use the plugin Simple WordPress Membership that works fine and that have
   the possibility to protect created pages so that only logged in users can see
   these pages in the frontend.
 * Because the /events page is an archive page I can’t edit it. And the page with
   the slug /single-event doesn’t work together with the membership plugin so I 
   can’t protect it.
 * So I need only a protection for this two slugs or a redirection for non logged
   in users.

 * Hi [@thobie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thobie/)
 * Thanks for your reply! I understand what you’re looking for. In this case, I 
   do think you’ll need some kind of third-party solution to make it work.
 * If you’re looking for a free plugin, you can try the [Redirection plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/redirection/)
   for your events pages.
 * Let me know if that helps!
 * Thanks,
    Jaime

 * Hello, Jaime,
 * a colleague of mine has already recommended the Redirection plugin to me.
 * Unfortunately, I can’t find an option in its settings that configured redirections
   are not always carried out, but only for visitors who are not logged in. The 
   registered visitors should come to the event pages.

 * I think I solved the problem differently. In the forum of the plugin for the 
   members area I was recommended two addons. One with Full Page Protection and 
   one with Customer Messages. The former lets logged in members to the event pages,
   but blocks the permalinks of an anonymous visitor to the site. And with the second
   one I can customize the error message in the process. But thanks for your help
   anyway.
