Hello, How can I restrict users personal sandbox. For example currently if JohnDoe logs in to TWiki, and clicks on users, he can click on the user JoeBlogs and then click on JoeBlogsSanbox and edit this page.

I would like to restrict access so that when JohnDoe clicks on JoeBlogsSandbox, in attempt to edit the personal sandbox, he will get a access denied error.

Discussion and Answer

I don't recommend to restrict access to user homepages or sandbox pages as I mentioned in SID-00499.

If you want to restrict access to new pages created in the Sandbox web, add the same seeting described in SID-00499 to your Sandbox.WebTopicEditTemplate page.

Read details in TWikiAccessControl and Sandbox.WebPreferences.
