      Hi,

      We have public pages that can obviously be visited by our registered members. When they visit these public pages + they are logged in to our site, we want to redirect them to the equivalent (richer) page on the private site e.g. a logged in user visiting /public/contentA will be redirected to /private/contentA

      Note: Our /public pages are indexed by Google whereas /private pages are excluded.

      a) will this affect our SEO?

      b) if not, is 302 the best http status code to use?

      Cheers

      • Our protected pages 302 redirect to a login page if not a member. Is that a problem for SEO?
