Making the panel not show up for guests means editing a template file which shows that panel. If I recall, the template you need to edit is called docextra.vm and you'll want to make an if statement something like this. #if("$xcontext.getUser()" != 'XWiki.XWikiGuest') ## the part which makes the panels show #end Caleb Kaya Saman wrote:

Hi,

is there a way to give user permissions on the bottom panel that has:

Annotations Comments Attachments History Information

in it??

What I'd like to do is give read/write permissions to all signed up users and then deny all other "guest" users access so that if a guest goes into the site the panel doesn't even show?

I'm using the toucan skin and have found this which is too dramatic as it disables the the comments panel altogether:

I tried searching under the Panels home but couldn't find any names correlating to the above panel..... also.

Thanks,

Thanks very much Caleb and Raluca, I used the: #if($displayDocExtra&& !$isGuest) #template("docextra.vm") <div class="clearfloats"></div> #end method in 'docextra.vm' template and now things are working fine :-) Also the link that was given states how to change the background image as well which am going to attempt soon.... Thanks so much for this :-) Best regards, Kaya On 25/08/2010 11:07, Raluca Stavro wrote:

Hi,

You can also modify 'view.vm' template and test if the current user is guest or not before displaying 'docextra.vm'.

For the toucan skin, this is what you should do in 'view.vm' template:

... #if($displayDocExtra&& !$isGuest) #template("docextra.vm") <div class="clearfloats"></div> #end ...

For more information about how to modify a template see http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/Skins#HD.OverridingtheSkin... .
