 * I want to create a blog site where all blogs are UNPROTECTED if accessed directly(
   via link), but where browsing the site is not possible. To do that I thought 
   I would simply PROTECT the POSTS page (the page where all the blog posts would
   show).
    But that isn’t working. It simply doesn’t bring up the page that says
   that this is protected content, but shows the list of unprotected posts. (I only
   have one there right now.) I implemented a work around – in that I protected 
   the ‘Read More’ tag on the home page and below that tag is a link to the POSTS
   page. Not very clean – but it works.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fprotect-posts-page%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi, unfortunately conditional protection at the moment is not possible in the
   plugin. What you are currently doing to protect the blog post page is probably
   the best option for now.
