Easiest way to protect content on WordPress microsite?

We engaged a web developer who built a microsite for us. We are in finishing stages and when I tried to touch up content on site via \wpadmin it seemed changes didn't appear. The developer explained on protected content pages (we have some locked collateral links at bottom) that I would have to modify in 2 places.

It seems kind of crude (spoken by a non-developer) to me and wondered if this is standard or if there is an easier way to provide locked content experience but not have to make page adjustments in 2 different areas.

I attached a screenshot as he explained that they are using the custom field screen option to override the visual editor. Surely there is a more elegant way.

No screenshot attached, but there probably are much better ways to protect the content.

Can you explain what are you trying to protect?
