I have a custom module with controls.The goal is to show the Add new item link to a set of users without giving them Edit Module or Edit Page mode.

I have added a new module action of ModuleActionType.AddContent to Add new item.

public ModuleActionCollection ModuleActions
        {
            get
            {
                ModuleActionCollection actions = new ModuleActionCollection();

                actions.Add(GetNextActionID(), Localization.GetString(

ModuleActionType.AddContent, LocalResourceFile),
                   ModuleActionType.AddContent, "", "add.gif", EditUrl(), false, DotNetNuke.Security.SecurityAccessLevel.View,true, false);
               
            }
        }



If I set SecurityAccessLevel to SecurityAccessLevel.View.,Add new item links get visible to all the Users but if the User who dont have edit page/module rights clicks on this link he get following message.

 

Access Denied

Warning You do not have access to view this module within the portal.


If an anonymous user clicks on Add new item user get redirected to login window.

If I set SecurityAccessLevel to SecurityAccessLevel.Edit.Only users who have edit module/page can see & Add new item.

What settings I should set to action button so we can allow set of users who don't have edit page/module permissions to add new item?

Ensure that in the DotNetNuke Manifest for the module that the "Type" for the control is set to "View".  My guess is that it is currently set as "Edit".
