Can the member only page be located in ANY tree or is there any structure?

If there is a structure I would disable access control for the editors 
and preset the access to -2 (ANY LOGGED USER) or what ever you want.

Then fix the chaos in DB -> done.

So: no PHP coding required just TSconfig and a little SQL for the fix ;-)

Other option would be to give editor only access to usergroup -2, -1 -> 
check TSconfig.

Peter.
