Hi Peter,

I've tested and even though those protected pages do show up for non-logged-in guests, the search results, when opened, they do not show the content but ask to log in with the login form.

This is the expected behavior because the access control limits the content when the individual page/post is visited. It doesn't exclude them from the search results.

regards,
Waqar
