perhaps all that is required is this: when a page is requested, check the parents all the
way up, and if you find a parent that is hidden, don’t show the page.

ok, that was it. there were child pages that were un-hidden. BUT. I thought that was the
whole point of having pages in a structure, so you could hide a whole branch by hiding the
parent. Having to go and explicitly hide each and every page seems like a bug to me.
It’s not a bug (since it wasn’t mean to be that way) but that could be a nice new feature.
Although it might be quite complex to implement since we’d need to query the whole
hierarchy just to know if a page is hidden or not). Unless we recursively set all children
pages to hidden when you set a parent to hidden and thereafter when the user creates a
page inside a nested hidden one, the hidden checkbox would be on by default (not shown for
simple users).
In any case, it’s worth creating a jira issues (of type “idea”) to record the idea. I’m
renaming this issue to discuss the idea.

Hello,
If the "Display hidden pages" option from the profile preferences is set to
"no" and a hidden page is still displayed, then that page might have a
child which is not hidden.
Hope this helps,
Alex

Hello everyone:
I have noticed that top level pages remain visible even when setting to
"hidden". Is this standard behavior, or is it some kind of bug? or am I not
doing something right? version 8.0
