Hide dashboard.action page from anonymous users

[justindowning]

I have a Confluence site with global USE permission for Anonymous users. I have the Site Homepage set to a specific space to 'sandbox' the anonymous user. However, a user could still navigate to the dashboard.action page. How can I lock this page down down to specific groups?

You can redirect anonymous users to a space or somewhere else by using Visibility Plugin and Redirection Plugin. For example, you can add the following in your Global Layout:

$helper.renderConfluenceMacro("{show-to:users=@anonymous}")

$helper.renderConfluenceMacro("{redirect:ds:}")

$helper.renderConfluenceMacro("{show-to}")

That will redirect Anonymous users to Demonstration Space whenever they reach Dashboard.
