Check permission on unauthenticated user

Guess I've never taken this approach before. I've always just assigned permissions to users in roles. I don't believe you'll get to assign any permissions to a non-authenticated user or role because you can't really check that.

What I'd test is assign permissions to the "Public" user then check if the user is the public user OR not authenticated OR if the user is Public and assigned the role(s) you specify and then perform you actions. Not saying it will work but its worth a test.

Hi Brenden,

Thanks for the quick answer. I think you misunderstood me. Let me try again. Let's suppose we have the following situation: a Kentico site with 5 pages -> 2 of this pages are visible just for logged in users (in Pages-> Security -> Requires authentication is set to true). Now I want to check in code if the current page is visible just for the logged in users or for everyone in other words if the "Requires authentication" is set to true or false.

Thanks

Best, Victor

Hi,

why no just use MembershipContext.AuthenticatedUser to check if user is authenticated?

Hi Petar,

Did you even read my post? I don't need to check if the user is authenticated or not. I need to check if a certain page (document) is allowed to be accessed without authentication.

Hi Petar,

This is exactly what i need! Thanks!

Best, Victor

Where's the answer???

This thread goes from Victor asking "Did you even read my post?" to the next message where he says "This is exactly what i need! Thanks!".

What was the code that resolved his issue?

Same question as Paul Ryan. Where is the answer to this issue?

PageInfoProvider.GetPageInfo(DocumentContext.CurrentDocument.DocumentGUID).RequiresAuthentication;
