On my portal, I have seven pages visible to everyone, and the rest you must be logged in to see. I would like those seven pages to display individually in the menu when not logged in, but then collapse under a parent page, public site, when someone logs in, so they don't take up too much room in the menu. I figured out a hack that works reasonably well (two sets of pages, one redirecting to the other - one set under a public site parent page that's only visible to registered users, and the other at the top level of the menu system, not visible to registered users) but us poor admins still have to see both sets of pages in the menu. Is there a real way to make collapsing menus based on user logged in status? If not, is there a way to make pages not viewable by admins?

It's been a day, and I only got 9 views? Are these forums really that dead? It's a simple question, or was I not clear enough? I'd appreciate a reply even if it's just to say that what I want isn't possible...

i think perhaps the skinning forum might have been a better choice than admin - http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/Forums/forumid/109/scope/threads.aspx . As to your question, it should be possible -id likely use the ddrmenu (built into 6.0) with razor templates (http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/Wiki/loc/allpages/Cat/DDRMenu.aspx) as you can add code to check the user is logged in and what roles e.g. User.IsInRoles("Administrator") and render different menus.

Sorry, I didn't think this question had anything to do with skins. I expected it to be part of the built-in menu system, shame it's not. Maybe something you'll consider adding in the future? :)

I'm afraid I have no idea how to add this code you speak of. Where do I put it? And I'll need a bit more than User.IsInRoles("Administrator")...what would be the full syntax to, say, display a page if a user is an administrator? I just need a full example of adding one page based on a user's roles, and I can tweak it as necessary.

Thanks for the help!

please take a look at the razor example for DDRMenu that I pointed out . As to the code, it's just using UserController - http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/Wiki/Page/UserController.aspx
