How to remove protection of a child of protected page
I have a login and register pages which are children of home. The home has to be protected (it's an extranet kind of site and I use Public access feature). I use v6.1.6 and it looks like Remove protection button doesn't work for child pages. Is it a bug or there is something I'm missing?
I've noticed that by default a page inherits access permissions from parent, if I go to public access of this page and set it up it will get its own access rules (there is no option to make it public). If I click Remove access button it starts to inherit from parent again.
My question is if it possible to remove access restrictions at all (make it public) for a page which is a child of protected page or do I have to move this page outside of protected page (in my case make Login and Register pages siblings of Home)?
When you set public acces you can choose a login and error page. Those can also be visited when you are not logged in even if they are child nodes of a protected parent. Otherwise I don't think it's possible. Maybe there is an event you can use for it, but I'm not sure.

Thank you.
The acces data get's stored in the /App_Data/access.config file. Maybe check in there if something is wrong.
