News + CustomContent

Post by Stoffel84 »

Hi,

how i'm able to protect a category in news module with custom content.
Details: With FrontedUsers i have developed a protected area on my homepage.
If a user logs on he is able to view the protected page. The problem is now that this page is a news page, which only shows one category for loggedin users only. Thats a security bug. Users which are not logged in are able to view this category by changing url.
Problem: With a search query this news category is also shown.

How i am able to fix that problems?

Thanks for help.

Change the page to a regular page, and put a {news category='blah'} tag into it.  and surround that code with custom content logic.
