Configure how to handle portlets that a user is not authorized to view

Specify how we want the portal to display portlets that a user is not authorized to view with the Global Settings portlet.

The Global Settings portlet does not work in portal cluster configurations.

1. Click the Administration menu icon in the toolbar.

2. Click Portal Settings > Global Settings.

3. Make a selection from the field If a user is not authorized to view a portlet:

   Portlet is not displayed

   Choose this option if we want nothing to display.

   Portlet is not displayed, replaced by an informative message

   Choose this option if we want a message to be displayed instead of the portlet.

4. Click Save.
