Is there a way to make a content page visible to umbraco users only? I see how you can use the "Public Access" option to set access for members but i'd like my admins to have access to specific pages without having to set them up as members as well...what am I missing here?
Hi Justin, No you cannot restrict access to front end pages by user, only members. My suggestion would be to create a member for each of the admin users and use Public Access, like you have said in your question.
As Neil points our correctly, users and members are different concepts, and therefore should not be mixed. I'd also go for the solution to create a user for each member that needs access to the page on the frontend.
Another option if you really want to restrict to just users, is to create a user control that checks if someone is logged in and if not, directs them to the login, and then add that to every page you want restricted.
