Feature #2618
closed
Allow blocks to be displayed on the front page when NOT logged in
100%
Description
Currently only "login" and "portal_home" can be displayed on the front page when user is not logged in.
Additional blocks would be useful as well. For example a list of links, resources, static html, etc.
Tentative refactoring:
- add a display_anonymous() function to Block
- returns by default the value of a configuration field: display_anonymous
- changes the default DefaultHomeRenderer to make use of this function instead of hardcoding. If true displays the block, if false do not display the block.
Extract from DefaultHomeRenderer:
line 138
if (! is_null($this->get_user())||( $block->get_component() 'login') || ( $block->get_component() 'portal_home'))
in chamilo\home\php\lib\home_renderer\renderer\default.class.php

How can I test this? I can't find any of these settings.

go to admin->hopepage
add blocks to the default home page
disconnect
go to homepage
new blocks are displayed - that is if they allow to be displayed anonymoulsy.
Note: I left the default behaviour of "do not display on front page" and enabled anonymous login only for blocks I wanted to be shown. Will left other owners decide if they want to turn on this feature.
