Summary
After adding a guest user to a space, a set of warnings is displayed around it to indicate that it is available to Guest users.
For example:
However, some of these messages may look misleading to some customers.
For example, when adding restrictions.
- If you add View/Edit restrictions to a page to prevent Guest users from accessing it and then go to its Child page, the View restriction of the parent page should be inherited on this one, and Guests shouldn't be able to see this page.
- However, the Restrictions section of that child page will show a message that could indicate that guest users are indeed able to access the page.
- Message: "1 guest can access."

Because of this, admins need to confirm in different ways if Guests can access the content, which is a time-consuming activity. There are some features to check this but it still consumes considerable time depending on the number of users.
- Log in as another user - Need to do it user-by-user
- Inspect permissions - Only available for premium customers
Suggestion
It would be great to remove this message from pages inheriting restrictions of pages restricted for guest users. Currently, the message doesn't show on the page with the restrictions.
