fix: hide password-protected event and speaker content until unlocked - #374
Root cause: the plugin's single templates for events and speakers replace the theme template and print content directly, so WordPress never shows its password form. Other paths also read protected text without checking the password: calendar exports, the event and speaker listing cards, and the core REST endpoints, which return registered meta such as the lead text and speaker bio.
Fix:
public/templates/single-wpfa-locked.php (new): shown instead of the single event or speaker template while the post is locked. It keeps the plugin header, hero and footer, prints only public details (the title, plus date and location for events) and renders the core password form in place of the content. Once the visitor unlocks the post, the normal template loads as before.
includes/class-wpfaevent-templates.php: load() sends locked singular events and speakers to that template, using the same lock check as the cards, so users who can edit the post still get the normal page.
is_locked() decides whether the current visitor must not see a post's protected text. Users who can edit the post are exempt, so the front-end edit modals keep working.
filter_rest_response() blanks wpfa_event_lead_text, wpfa_speaker_bio and wpfa_speaker_talk_abstract in wp/v2 responses unless the request supplies the correct password. Hooked in includes/class-wpfaevent.php.
public/partials/events/event-card.php, public/partials/speakers/speaker-card.php: skip the lead text, excerpt, bio and talk abstract while the post is locked, including the card data-* attributes used by search.
includes/class-wpfaevent-calendar.php: get_event_calendar_data() leaves the description empty while the password is required. This covers the public ICS endpoint and Google Calendar links. Title, date and location still export.
Tests:
tests/unit/CalendarTest.php: protected descriptions are missing from calendar data, ICS output and Google Calendar URLs; locked events get the locked template, while editors still get the event template.
tests/unit/ProtectedContentTest.php (new): the lock check, including the editor exemption; REST responses with no, wrong and correct passwords; event and speaker cards; and the locked template printing no protected text.

Entering the correct password shows the normal event and speaker pages with full content.
The events listing still shows the protected event's card, but without its lead text.
With ?password=<correct password>, REST returns the real values.

Summary by CodeRabbit
Bug Fixes
Password-protected events and speakers no longer reveal private descriptions, biographies, or talk abstracts in public listings or API responses before they are unlocked.
Calendar entries for password-protected events omit their descriptions, including in calendar links.
New Features
Locked event and speaker pages display a password form and available public details; protected content remains hidden until the post is unlocked.
Password-protected wpfa_event and wpfa_speaker posts were rendered in full
by the plugin's single templates, and their content was exposed through
the public ICS REST endpoint and Google Calendar links on event cards.
- Fall back to the theme template (core password form) while a singular
event or speaker is locked.
- Omit the description from calendar data when the post password is
required, covering ICS exports and Google Calendar URLs.
- Add unit tests for both paths.
The PR prevents password-protected event and speaker content from leaking through singular pages or calendar integrations by deferring locked singular views to the active theme and blanking protected event descriptions in shared calendar data, while preserving non-sensitive metadata and plugin rendering after unlock.

Walkthrough
Password-protected event and speaker content is suppressed in REST responses and rendered cards. Locked event and speaker pages use a dedicated template with a password form. Protected event descriptions are omitted from calendar data, ICS output, and Google Calendar URLs.
Changes: Password protection
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Locked content and REST metadata includes/helpers/class-wpfaevent-protected-content.php, includes/class-wpfaevent.php, tests/unit/ProtectedContentTest.php
The helper identifies locked posts and blanks protected REST metadata unless the request supplies the matching password. Hooks apply the filter to event and speaker responses. Tests cover lock status and REST responses.
Locked event cards omit lead text and excerpts. Locked speaker cards omit biographies and talk abstracts while retaining public talk titles. Locked singular event and speaker requests use a dedicated template with a password form. Tests check card output, template rendering, and template selection.
Password-protected events receive an empty calendar description. Tests check that private content is absent from calendar data, ICS output, and Google Calendar URLs.
fossasia/WPFAevent#371: Both PRs affect event descriptions used in cards and calendar output. This PR suppresses the description for locked events.

Wpfaevent_Templates::load() routes locked event and speaker pages to single-wpfa-locked.php, which renders the WordPress password form and public details only. get_event_calendar_data() removes protected descriptions from calendar data, including ICS and Google Calendar output. The protected-content helper and added tests cover lock checks, password access, REST metadata, cards, and locked templates.

The changes remain within issue #373. REST metadata filtering and card filtering protect the same event and speaker descriptions and bios on additional public surfaces.

**Locked details remain visible**
When a password-protected event or speaker appears in a public listing or linked-speaker card, `page-events.php`, `page-speakers.php`, and `page-past-events.php` render cards that bypass the singular-template and calendar-data guards; `event-card.php` and `speaker-card.php` expose protected excerpts, lead text, content, bios, and talk details without a password.
Check each event or speaker’s password state in the public card rendering paths and suppress its protected details until it is unlocked.
Also at `includes/class-wpfaevent-calendar.php:375`.

</code_context>
<issue_to_address>
**REST still exposes protected metadata**
When an unauthenticated client requests the REST representation of a password-protected event or speaker, wordPress’s public event and speaker REST endpoints still return registered content metadata, including the event lead text and speaker bio, without checking the post password; the calendar-only guard does not protect those fields.
Filter protected posts’ REST responses to withhold their content metadata until the post password is supplied.
</issue_to_address>
Listing cards and the core REST endpoints still exposed the lead text,
excerpt, speaker bio and talk abstract of password-protected posts.
- Add Wpfaevent_Protected_Content to decide when a visitor is locked out
(users who can edit the post are exempt, so the edit modals keep working).
- Blank the protected meta in wpfa_event and wpfa_speaker REST responses
unless the request supplies the correct password.
- Skip protected text in event and speaker cards while the post is locked.
- Add unit tests for the lock check, REST responses and both cards.
Locked events and speakers fell back to the theme's generic single
template, so the page lost the site header, hero and footer.
- Add single-wpfa-locked.php, which keeps the plugin header and footer,
shows only public details (title, plus date and location for events)
and renders the core password form in place of the content.
- Route locked singular events and speakers to it from
Wpfaevent_Templates::load().
- Test the template choice and that the locked page prints no
protected text.
