 * Hi
    I wasn’t very clear at my first questions. Let say if I have protected a 
   hole category. When user is not logged in and it will open that category it will
   show a list of posts with the message: please log in to see this… repeatedly 
   on every post excerpt.
 * So instead of this, in my project, I think is more professional to display just
   one message: you can’t see posts from this category because you aren’t logged
   in.
 * My question is if it is a function to test if a category is protected to that
   user, and to use in my theme-category.php. And if it is I can display one message(
   you can’t see posts from this category because you aren’t logged in…) and if 
   it isn’t I can show the posts in normal way.
 * Thank you for your quick feedback and support.
