I am building a WordPress MU service, that allowing users to register sites and manage these sites only from front end via AJAX.
In main site, I have register a domain in the form of http://www.my-site.com/edit-site/55/ that display a form with the site options.
The problem is that the above method creates security issues, because some user may start change site ids at the end of the URL and reach the site options of other members.
So, is there a way to check if the current user has the right to update the options of the given site ?
Please refer this link,

current_user_can() function will resolve your problem I think.

Is it possible to hide an entire website behind a log-in screen? Making the visitor login to see the content. I know there are plugins like this on Wordpress but I am unable to find something for Kentico.
Thanks,

Yes. At the root of the website (master page) select it. Then go to Properties>Security and in the Access section of that page, select yes for the "Requires authentication" attribute and save the page. This will force the user to the login page you have defined in your web.config OR in your Settings to authenticate first. This will be inherited by default through the rest of the child pages.
First off, apologies for not knowing the nomenclature for what I'm looking for, I'm not typically a Windows web admin.
I have a SharePoint website which contains several subsites. We also have several alternate URLs that point to specific pages, and some of those alternate URLs have friendly URLs which also redirect to other specific pages. We're in the process of migrating from a SharePoint 2007 site to this one, and in the process, I'm trying to remove our reliance on our registrar for handling some of this redirection, because it is apparently not a free service.
Currently our registrar does the following redirects:
http://alias1.tld/* redirects to http://subsite1.ca/page1
http://alias1.tld/friendly redirects to http://subsite1.ca/page2
http://alias2.tld/ redirects to http://subsite1.ca/page3
I know I can accomplish the first and second by setting the sites up in IIS, and using the HTTP Redirect function, but I'm not sure how I can do the second one. In Apache this would be easy, but I'm not sure what I'm looking for here.
Is this something that should be handled within SharePoint, and have that take care of redirecting alias1.tld/friendly to the specific page, or is this something I need to setup in IIS? Is this what URL rewrite is for, or is there a different IIS way to do this?
I'm not sure that this is the best way to do it, but I got things working how I wanted them. Here's what I ended up doing:
Create a new subsite on subsite1 to give me the URL subsite1.ca/subsubsite
Create a redirect from alias1.tld to subsite1.ca/subsite
Create 2 pages for the new subsite. One for the default page and one to use to redirect to page2. Both pages are redirects, Default points to Page1, the second points to Page2.
Set the subsite to use Managed Navigation for global and current through Site Settings > Navigation, and created a default term set by selecting the new subsite in the list and then clicking Create Term Set, then clicking OK.
Then created a term store for the one page that needs to be handled differently by going to Site Settings > Term Store Management. Click on the Term Set created in the last step, then select New Term. On the Term-Driven Pages tab, create the friendly URL and then select the target page, which is the redirect page created in step 3, then click Save.
I'm having quite a hard time figuring out this problem and I need your help. Here's the scenario:
I have a sharepoint 2010 web application on my port 80. This has 2 site collections, the root, and the /sites/official. My problem is: The root site is empty, but in the future it will be my something (I don't know what yet), but my other site collection is ready to go and I already have an Internet address for it.
What I want to do is configure everything in way that I can type http://contoso.com and get as response my sub-site (yes, its a kind of redirect)...
how can I do it? What and where should I configure it?
add content editor webpart on your root site collection and put this javascript in that webpart
<script type="text/javascript">
window.location = "http://contoso.com/sites/official"
</script>
Open IIS manager
Right click on your SharePoint website -> Properties
Go to tab Home Directory
Choose A redirection to a URL
fill the URL for redirection. for example: http://contoso.com/sites/official
Notes:
Make sure to check A Directory below URL entered to avoid redirect loop
Link to another thread might interest the reader - immediate redirect page in sharepoint

I am starting to create a site that uses Drupal. One of my requirements is that nobody will see any "real" content until they log in. The home page will basically be a static page with a logo, some basic "this is what the site does" copy, and then a login form. If you don't login, you can then only see some other static pages (faq, legal, privacy, etc...) but you can't use the actual site. Think Facebook's login page, basically just fluff with a login form.
From searching around, I have found 3 different methods for this:
Create a page that is basically separate from the Drupal installation, but then when the form submits, check it against the Drupal DB and then proceed if logged in successfully. This would be done with Apache, maybe an .htaccess file directive to change the first served page.
Use the Front Page extension. I haven't looked at this too extensively, has anyone used it? Pros/Cons?
Somehow finagle the default Druapl "Home Page" functionality to allow this to happen. I would rather not have to do this, unless someone knows that there is an easy way to do this.
One of my requirements is that nobody will see any "real" content until they log in.
There is a permission that users need have in order to access content on Drupal (access content); if anonymous users don't have that permission, then they would not be able to see any content.
Using the module you reported, you can create a different home page for anonymous users.
Solution #1 is not the ideal one as it requires more work for something that can be obtained from inside Drupal. Take in mind that the correct way to access Drupal DB is to use the DB API Drupal comes with.
Is it possible to set a default site for a group of users in Sharepoint and have the main default page redirect them to the sub site?
I don't know an out of the box feature which could do this, but you could write a small WebPart which does the redirect depending on the user who visits the site. Shouldn't be to difficult.
The configuration could either be stored in the web part itself or within a list. To speedup the whole redirect process you should cache the redirect information when it was read from the configuration.
That's the way I would do this.
Don't forget to think about a way which let you access and edit the page with the redirect web part without getting redirected.
