Extension Paid Membership Pro with error restriction - membership

The extension Paid Membership Pro restricted all pages on my site and all pages returned to an empty homepage when I did customize my homepage.
Currently, only admins can view pages. Neither simple users, nor search engines nor non-member users can see anything except that they click on the links on my site, they fall on the homepage every time.
What to do ?

Liferay 7: Sharing Content

I am new to Liferay and was wondering if the following use case is possible:
Use Case:
Share a piece of content in Site A with Site B.
- No Parent Child relationship between sites
- No Global Content
- The content to be shared is in Site A.
- Site A is set up to share content at the site level.
- Want to add content to a page in Site B, not a site admin or site owner. Regular user. Page is set to be customized.
Have found ways to share some content with placing content in the global space, users having site admin role on both sites, subsites showing parent site content, but nothing that enables our use case to work.
Is this possible to achieve? If so, how?
Not OOTB! The purpose of site is exactly to group (and eventually protect) content and pages. Unless you explicitly share the content (which is what global site is for) it is only available in the site it is defined. There are some other sharing options you've already discovered like parent-child sharing or site admin role sharing but no random sharing between sites.
That said, you can always extend Liferay and do this yourself, taking into account all the security issues and management overhead in introduces. If the content is public (or the user viewing it has the right permissions), you can use IFrame or call the respective jsonws service to get the content and display it.

Are developers able to load a specific portion of a website into a company's facebook page

I want to know if developers are able to load a specific region of website into their company's Facebook page? If so, How? Is anyone else doing it or is there any company Facebook page I can see or reference?
Reason:
To get around the 810 pixel limit and having no ability to adjust the source website I need to show only a portion of the website in Facebook. When the users hit the link on the portion of the website I want to take them to the appropriate page but stay in Facebook.

Why can't users in the "Visitors" group access my SharePoint 2010 publishing site. It works when i promote them to the "Members" group

When I place a test AD account in the Visitors group they are unable to view any pages on my new intranet site. The users receives the "Error access denied" sharepoint screen and indicates that the account was able to authenticate, but that some authorisation rule is permitting it from viewing the page.
When i remove then and place them in the Members or Owners groups they are able to view the pages as well as perform the expected functions like editing content and creating subsites.
Interesting, while in only the Visitors group, users can view the "All Site Content" page that is located here: /_layouts/viewlsts.aspx but not /pages/default.aspx.
Has anyone experienced this before?
Environment info:
1 Web application, 1 Site collection using the Publishing Portal template. A few custom master pages, lots of custom page layouts and user controls. All deployed via features.
Sharepoint 2010 Standard edition, 64bit running on Windows Server 2008 against SqlServer 2008 Enterprise Edition. Authentication is against AD, not any other forms auth providers etc.
One likely reason for such behavior is that it tries to access a resource on a page which might not have been published to a major version. For example, if versioning was turned on on images library and an image's version is 0.1, if that image was used on version 1.0 (published) of the page, the server would deny access to the visitor and ask for credentials.
Make sure following:
At least one major version of the page exists (page was published at least once)
All resources (images, movie files etc) used on the page are published (to major version)
You can use "Draft Check" button on Page Tab of the Page's ribbon to check the unpublished resources that are used by the page.
I had the same issue and I've finaly found out how to do this:
If you check OOB group access, you can find that Visitors group has limited number of pages where it has granted access.
Navigate to /yourweb/_catalogs/masterpage. Here you'll find many
.aspx files (including default.master).
Open this default.master`s permissions and you see it inherits from
Master Page Gallery.
Click this permissions inheritance and you can see that Master Page
Gallery permissions are not inherited from site collection
permissions.
Give here the Contribute permissions to Style Resource Readers (or
modify it as you'd like) and all users will have access to this web
with no permissions to edit etc..
I had a similar issue and the thing I noted in your Environmental comments was the custom master pages. Go to your Site Settings and ensure that your custom master pages have been published. If you need to publish them also check the corresponding html pages after they have been published as they may need to be republished also.
This worked for me.

Cannot save layout page in Moss

I am trying to update a layout page in Sharepoint Designer but when I click Save I receive an Access Denied error. I can see that the layout page is created by the system account. I am in the site owners group so I think I should be able to make modifications to the page.
Any help?
The page could be checked out by the System Account or never had a published version, also, site owners have limited permissions in the site collection (where the page layouts reside)

Changing the default page based on security group in SharePoint

We have a SharePoint site collection. In this site collection we have a home site and 6 other sites. Each of these sites belongs to a department in our company. Right now if you are a member of department A security group you would see homepage and your department site/tab when you navigate to the site. What they want me to do is to redirect the users directly to the department site/tab whenever they navigate to the site.
Is there any way to do this without coding or with coding?
With coding, you could write a very simple web control and include that on the home page. It would test which group a user belongs to and then redirect accordingly.
There are various ways to check if a user belongs to a group. One method is to get a reference to each SPGroup object and use SPGroup.ContainsCurrentUser.
You might also like to consider creating a custom list that maps SPGroup name against department URL, so you can manage behaviour of the control through the SharePoint UI.
