certain pages viewable by members only

[Speed Racer]

Hi guys n gals,

 

 is it possible to make particular pages visible only to members logged in to the network, or is a private/public network all we can do?

[Speed Racer]

actually, i want to make 1 particular page hidden from non members/people not logged in, not the entire category, which is in my forum. I don't want the entire forum hidden, thats viable content for crawlers to see your content for searches, and if it isn't public, the crawlers cannot see it

What about making a group within a group and move such messages like that to that area. Then only members who join the group can see it if you mark it MEMBERS ONLY.

Hi! I have chosen "everyone" in the tab section for the About/Join/FAWCO/, etc pages of a network I am setting up. However, if a person that is not signed into the network clicks on one of the pages designated for "everyone" they are directed to the Sign up/Sign in page.

 

I need to have a membership application page available to the public. Once members are approved to the club/non-profit association they will be able to sign into the network on Ning.

 

Is it possible to make certain pages public while limiting others to members' only?

The only way you can do this is by making a "private" Group.

You can treat your new private Group page like an added page and insert an iframe or any html for that matter.

Then send an invite to all your members so this way when they go to that page all they need to do is click except and they're in.

Any new member will have to click "I want in" (or however you write it) and then you need to approve.

To make a Group private you need to do it as your are creating it. You can not create a Group then later make it private.

My question is similar.  I have tried unsuccessfully to change my private network to a public one. Perhaps I am doing something wrong.  I would like it to have the main page visible, but anyone who joins must be approved.  It is stuck in Private.

This can probably be done with jQuery. There are at least 2 discussions that you might look at and see if they help.

And here at Creators, see this: http://creators.ning.com/forum/topics/hiding-members-profiles-only

I know that's a lot to go through, but if you come to my site and give a very detailed explanation of exactly what you want to do, with links to the page or pages you want visible to members logged in only, I'll try to answer it there.

Best wishes!
