"Hiding Private Content in CMS Made Simple"
Posted: Fri Feb 15, 2013 6:40 pm
I'm building a new site so started with a fresh install of the latest (1.11.4). I want it to have a mix of public and private content so Google brought me to calguy's fantastic set of instructions for doing so. I'm having some problems and the latest version of the instructions I found was dated August 15th, 2009 so that might explain it.
I've got to the working as described where I can hide content pages (up through page 23 in my version of calguy's manual). The problem I'm having is with the next step of hiding the navigation tabs/links for non logged in users.
I don't know if that is because the page templates in this version has changed since the 2009 version. (E.g. or if it because a different way to set the 'extra1' attribute as there is no 'extra1' field in the options tab of the content page form but instead a 'Extra Page Attribute 1:' field. I assumed it was the same field and set it to 'restricted'.
Anyway I've made the changes best I could through page 25 of the manual but alas the navigation tabs/links for the hiding pages still displays whether or not the user is logged in or not.
I may have overlooked something but after sleeping on it I still can't find what's wrong.

Code: Select all
{menu template='simple_navigation.tpl' collapse='1'}
is now
{menu loadprops = 0 template='simple_navigation.tpl' collapse='1'}
