S2Member and tabbed content areas

[togethernet]

The plug-in S2Member protects pages from display to unauthorised users.
When using tabs, pulling content from external pages, this protection is circumvented.
This means that protected content may be displayed to unauthorised visitors to the site.
While this is really an issue withS2Member, it’s important that developers are aware of it.
is it possible to find a way to address this?

Hello,

I don’t really think it quite makes sense for the plugin to have effect in this scenario. The idea behind allowing you to populate a tab’s content with content from a page is essentially to allow the user a place to edit content as normal, or give the user alternative ways of organizing content outside of just the raw content box.

With this setup, you’re not actually displaying the “page” in the tab, you’re simply pulling its content and using it for the content of the tab.
