For example, anonymous users could be allowed to use the VIEW and HELP portlet modes but only authenticated users could use the EDIT portlet mode. It's what I want !!! But how can I do that ??? Thx Antoine_h, but your solution isn't simple and I don't know if I can modifie my source (doView function). And the is that we can access the mode directly in the URL... I've already thought to mofie my doEdit function, but I want to know if there is a solution more simple ! View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4030514#...
