MyPage ignores security

Im not sure if this was intentional but it seems if I make for example a admin only viewable content available for mypage my assumption allowing admins only to be able to use this content. It allows the user to see that it exists and throws an error if they try to use it.

What operating system? Win 2k8(Server)
What database platform? MSSQL 
What version of mojoPortal? 2.3.3.2 

To note error in log is:

2010-01-09 12:44:14,251 ERROR mojoPortal.Web.Global - XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX-en-GB - /MyPage.aspx?c=t

Re: MyPage ignores security

Hi Tooey,

Sorry, but the MyPage feature is not driven by roles, if you make a content instance available to My Page you are essentially publishing it to the public.

It is very much like My Yahoo or iGoogle, there is the same catalog of widgets available to all users not based on roles or specific users, there are no private widgets. It is just a way for users to create a personalized view of public content. Any feature meant only for people in specific roles should not be made available to My Page.

Best,

Joe
