Roles and Navigation

[Former Member]

Hi,

Our portal environment is NW04 Stack 11. Let me describe what I am trying to do.

Top Level Navigation tab -> Folder F1

2nd Level Navigation for Folder F1 -> F1a, F1b, F1c

Detailed Navigation for F1a -> Public, Private

I know how to set up the PUBLIC folder so it appears for all users but how would I set up the PRIVATE folder to only appear for selected users?

Any assistance would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Kris

Hi Kris,

You have to create 2 different roles with the same structure, one with Public at the bottom, and the other with Private.

Then you should set the property "merge id" of Folder F1 in the first role to a string of your choice, and set it in the Folder F1 in the second role <b>to the same string</b>.

Do the same for the rest of the merged points of the two roles (F1a F1b and F1c).

Finally, you can set the property "sort priority" of Public and Private to determine the order between them for users that have both roles.

Hope that helps,

Yoav.
