How do I tighten up browse facility?

Security and privacy are paramount on my site.

How can I make it so that a person who is not logged in is unable to view photos by manually entering the path to browse photos?

e.g. http://{site_name}/m/photos/browse/

Use the built in Page Access Control module.  You need go in and block the pages you don't want someone to browse to; this is under Page access.  There are some topics on what to enter in the fields here in the forum or ask for help in what to enter in the PAC to block access to pages.  The Boonex tutorial on this may be wrong according to what I read.

Hi and thank you for your reply.

I can't see how the Page Access Control Module would work as the page I want to block from non-members is not listed there. I need to contain the browse pages.

For example:

http://www.mysite.com/m/photos/browse/

You go to the page access tab

Insert a new rule.

Access URL template: m/photos/browse/.*
Advanced Expression: Checked
Forbidden groups: Non-Member checked. The rest Unchecked

That will block non members to all pages that start with m/photos/browse/   The .* at the end is a wildcard. Matches anything.
