I see that this is how the Search Island works. Is there a way to make/toggle all islands work this way?

That doesn't appear to be an option in the code. You can set permissions for most everything else - would make a nice feature for the next version smile

Is there a workaround for this - I cannot have guest visitors being able to see user profiles and the such from islands on the portal layout.

How do they see user profiles? Do you mean being able to see the names of the people who recently registered, posted, etc? You can turn off their ability to actually view a profile (or any file for that matter) by going into the corresponding script (showprofile in this case) and changing this:

"regonly" => 0,

to this:

"regonly" => 1,

They'll be able to click on a profile name, but will get an error that they don't have permissions.

No - on the portal layout there are islands that appear to guests. Search island does not. How do I make them all work like the Search island?

OK - I went to a couple of PHP files that had


"regonly" => 0,

in them. Is there a safe way to just change the ones I need to

"regonly" => 1,

or just do a search replace on all files?

Also - should I only do this to those in the Include Directory?

Any ideas on this one people? I can change every

"regonly" => 0,

to a

"regonly" => 1,

In all of the PHP file sin the include directory, but I would like to know if that is the fix, or if there are only certain files I need to do this to

OR

If there is a better way.

Thanks!

Well, most of the islands are cached content, so you can't really limit who they are displayed to, since there is no check to see who the user is, it's just static HTML by the time the island is served.

There's not really any way to hack this functionality in without some major work.

The Portal Search Island works correctly this way - is there now way to get the rest to work this way?
