Is it possible to customize Anonymous Access - view?

[Deleted user]

It seems that we can only use the pre-defined permissions for Anonymous Access in Spaces Admin (view)/Administration (global - can use).

I am curious to know if it is possible to achieve the following:

Suppose there is a space called tux, I want anonymous (non-login) users to be able to see the page names (titles) but not the contents of the pages. In other words, anonymous users will be able to see the space's pages tree structure but when they click on the pages they don't see the contents (contents hidden).

Cheers,

Terry

As Jobin mentioned above, you can edit the template/Velocity files and I do think that this is the best approach (although not recommended) rather than using JavaScript. You can refer to the following KB on how to do it: How to Display Different Appearance for Different Users Using Confluence Layouts

You can try to experiment by editing the Layouts page in Confluence Admin.

Please also note that if you are using Documentation Theme, any changes made to Layouts or Velocity files in Installation Directory won't affect the Documentation Theme. You need to edit the .vm files in doctheme-x.x.x.jar file as this is a bundled plugin. More info here: How to Edit Bundled or System Plugins

Not possible without hacking. The right approach will be to edit the templates to check if user is null or not but you can use some javascript to hide the content as well.

In the latter, the user will still be able to view it from source and hence not recommended for secure data!
