    Hide a module to everyone but guests

    Posted 14 years 11 months ago
    • Hello, I would like to place a module (Click here to Register) but have it only show up for guests, not registered users.

      I have seen various plug-ins that can control access to content but they don't seem to work with modules. Do you have any advice?

      I found this page that talks about a solution (creating a new module position that can be access controlled) but it requires tweaking the template. I'm not sure how that would affect Gantry. What do you think? http://www.aleixcortadellas.com/main/2009/08/09/hiding-modules-from-registered-users-in-joomla-1-5/

      Do you have a better or another way to accomplish this?

    • Have you checked the JED on joomla.org for a component that will allow you to do this?
    • Thanks,

    • I had tried several extensions on JED, even found a link for an old version of RokAccess. Nothing seemed to work outside of text in an actual article.

      I'll try Metamod and I'll let you know if that does the trick.

      Yes, Michael just tested metamod in this thread and it works
