Pages visable but no permission granted

Hi All,


I want to have listing displaying both secured and not secured documents for public user. Only difference will be padlock next to secured docs and link wont appear.



Any ideas how to achieve this in fast not requiring creating clones or replacement assets for secure docs?

How do you differentiate the secure from non-secure documents current? Are they in different folders? Do they have a metadata field marked "Secure" or something?



There needs to be some way to note that the documents are secure using something like a metadata field. Then, you could use a paint layout with your asset listing, and add a condition to check if a metadata field has any contents. If it does, then you could print the lock icon, if not, you could print the not locked icon.



Let me know how you are currently structuring your locked and not locked, and we might be able to figure something else out.

Thanks… That exactly what i did. Not the best way really but works :wink: THX

Hi Nic,



I am just wondering how could the secured assets be listed to the public users?



If the user logs in and he has the read permission, there will no difference between secured assets and un-secured assets; if the user doesn't log in, how can he see those secured assets?

Robin,



My understanding of the original post was that the user might have PDF files that some are secure pdf files (password protect pdf), and some are not secure pdf files. So, ALL are visible to the public user, but that there should be a visual indicator showing which of these documents was a secure file. I don't think it was a question about matrix permission or security since the post stated the "public" user. At least this was my understanding of the post.



Slawek, is this correct?
