Peter Keung	Monday 27 September 2010 7:23:15 am There is no such policy. Showing hidden nodes is controlled at the siteaccess level with this setting: [SiteAccessSettings] ShowHiddenNodes=true Depending on your reason for wanting to show hidden nodes, you can either create a separate siteaccess with only that setting being different (and then don't let anonymous users view that siteaccess), or control access to such nodes via a different method that's compatible with the permission system within the same siteaccess -- state, subtree, section, or similar. http://www.mugo.ca Mugo Web, eZ Partner in Vancouver, Canada
Quoc Huy Nguyen Dinh	Tuesday 28 September 2010 8:02:17 am Agree with Peter. I used to do this by creating a "Hidden" section, assign it to node/subtree to be hidden instead of using the Hide/Reveal feature. Then add permission to a particular group of editors so that they can view nodes from the "Hidden" section once logged-in.

Quoc Huy Nguyen Dinh	Monday 04 October 2010 3:45:50 am If you really need to use granting permissions without using sections there is a workaround. You could create a new role and or maybe user group and in the templates, you check if the user has the permission or member of the group and then use the 'ignore_visibility' fetch parameter: http://doc.ez.no/Extensions/eZ-Find/2.1/Customization/Template-fetch-functions#Ignore_visibility But this is more a pain as you will need to do this for all fetch calls your website is doing. Whereas the section solution applies to all.
