security trimming with no roles

Question

User179062990 posted

hi all,

I have a master page and a mySite.sitemap. I don't know what is wrong with my sql database setup, nevertheless the securityTrimmingEnabled in my web.config file does not do anything. Because I'm in a rush I would like to just hide/show menu items progarmatically based on my 2 possible roles my users can have. There is just one menu, two levels deep with just a few items each. For one role I need to show only two sub-items in the first item, all of them for the rest.

It is somewhat strange that Roles.Provider.GetRolesForUser("user1") is giving me the right value ...

Any idea how I hide menu items in my master page?
