The first special page will be the Access denied page. This is where users with insufficient permissions will be redirected after accessing some secured page. The page will contain only an Editable text web part which will display the access denied message.

 

1. Select the Special pages folder in the content tree and click New. Choose the Page (menu item) document type.

5. Switch to the Design tab. We will only need to add the Editable text web part into the zoneCenter web part zone, below the Editable text web part for heading. Click the Add web part (AddWebPart) icon of the zoneCenter web part zone and choose the Text & Images -> Editable text web part. You do not need to set any properties of the web part, just leave all of them at the default values.

 

In Design tab, the page should now look as in the following screenshot.

Heading: Access denied

Warning text: You're not allowed to access the required page. Please contact the administrator if you think you should be allowed to access it.

 

Click Save.
