How to Hide Portal from Non-Members

VIDIZMO allows you to hide a particular Portal from the listing to restrict access of non-members to the Portal.

There are two ways of accomplishing this:

  • Selecting Hidden as Security Policy Type. In the Hidden Security Policy type, all media uploaded in the Portal is accessible to Portal users only. This Portal is not anonymously accessible, and users cannot be added manually to this Portal. Furthermore, Join Request option is disabled by default.

  • Selecting Custom as Security Policy Type. In the Custom Security Policy type, Viewing Access as well as Portal Access Type are all available for customization as per business requirements.
