Portal access lets you control which sections of the portal are visible to each customer group.
Making certain portal sections visible to the public is a great way to let potential customers learn more about your space and its community.
For example, making your Events section visible to the public lets potential customers see your space's networking opportunities.
You may want to restrict other sections to logged-in users or even members only.
For example, you may want to restrict discussion boards to logged-in users to avoid spam comments.
You can make most portal sections available to the following groups:
- the public: anyone visiting your portal
- logged-in users: customers with an account
- members only: customers with an active contract in Nexudus
- contacts only: customers who don't currently have an active contract in Nexudus
The Plan and Product section visibility settings have been deprecated in Version 5.

You can find your portal access settings on the Admin Panel under Settings > Website > Access.
