Secure it from guest views on anything

spottedhaggis posted 18th of April 2008 in Community Voice. 3 comments.

I would like to use this system but for private membership only. I would like it to only have the header, and menu links, but for them all to display no access or similar, and for the home page to not display anything other than the login box until the member has logged in

Once logged in I want all restrictions removed, but in general I want a totally secure site so any guest that finds the site cannot view or access any part of it at all.

Can this be done without simply adding an entry to the htaccess file?

You can do that easily in the builders section, for instance create the homepage with just the Login block (guests) then the rest can be for member view only, same with pretty much everything, just click on the correponding item and select the view permissions.

You could also disable Free Mode (default ON)

The above said solution is good. You can also set all the blocks in profile page, photos page, video page and music page to be visible only to members and not to guests. Thus even if a guest opens a profile wid username in this manner www.yoursite.com/gkcgautam He would be shown nothing. Same is the case with other pages i mentioned. You can also create a block which wud be only visible to guests and you can write there that 'You need to login before using this page'

Thanks all, I figured it out, setting the builder menu options and such to not be guest solvs it for me.

I do have a new question though.

I have installed ray mods, and all seem to work, however the music upload, video upload pages simply display the spinning disk and then the text undefined is shown with nothing more.

I have to say though, this system is fantastic, and as soon as I have the ready cash Ill be paying for add removals, its a great system.
