Personalize menu webpart with permissions and roles

How can I personalize the main menu so some menu options are hidden until the user logs in? I have a created a new page and restricted permissions to a specific role. Anonymous users cannot access this page, but it still appears in the menu. Selecting the menu option prompts the user to login. I want to skip this step and just hide the menu option until the user logs in and is a member of the role with access permissions to the page.

Moreover, here you can find more information - http://www.kentico.com/docs/devguide/secured_web_site_areas.htm Best Regards, Juraj Ondrus

RE:Personalize menu webpart with permissions and roles

That works!

- Under CMS Site Manager / Development / Web Parts / CMSMENU I added the Check Permissions field.
- Under CMS Desk I modified the CMSWeb part and enabled "Check Permissions"
- For each Page Menu that I wanted to appear for Anonymous users on the menu I added the Public Users Role and grant Read permissions.

I was missing the last step and the menu was empty. Thanks.

Michael
