I've traced into this. In CustomSetAction the permission that is being
checked is 'View' access. Therefore the "user-view_admin-all" does not
prevent them from selecting the portlet for their home page.

if (JetspeedSecurity.checkPermission((JetspeedUser) data.getUser(),
new PortalResource(entry),
JetspeedSecurity.PERMISSION_VIEW)

I've been looking at some of the other permissions. What is the difference
between 'personalize' and 'customize'?


Personalize is not used, but you may be on to something there
If we check the personalize permission when listing portlets, this could work as a special permission to list portlets in the customizer's portlet list

Ps. I've got a feeling I'm going to need to create my own custom
CustomSetAction.

On a related note. . .

Is there a security setting on a given portlet so that only an admin
can add
it to a page?

Sure, just setup a security constraint using the Security Browser (from
the Admin UI)
There is one already deployed with the default deployment called
"user-view_admin-all" that may work for you

If you want to use that constraint for all portlet instances in the
system, go to the Portlet Browser,
find your portlet, edit it, go to the first tab (Information) and set
the Security Reference there.

You can also override the constraint on a per portlet instance basis
with the portlet customizer

We have some portlets we only want on public pages and we do not want
users
to be able to put them on their home pages.

Thanks

Bob

I know I can prevent users from seeing individual portlets in the PSML
Customizer by setting security on the portlet accordingly.




Is it possible to set security on an entire category of portlets so
that it
does not show up in the drop down list?

That would take some custom code.
Currently there are no security constraints associations on categories
