1. Specify that only members of the Internal User and Portal groups should have access to the Shop Menu, by adding the groups to the Menu like this:


You would get to this screen by navigating to the Website App, then Configuration --> Menus


2. Specify that only members of the Internal User and Portal groups should have access to the content of the SHOP page, by adding the groups tag to line 2 like this:


You would get to this screen by navigating to the Shop Page on the website and clicking Customize --> HTML/CSS/JS Editor

Thanks Odoo Technical Marketing for your solution!!
But with this solution the visitor goes to a blank page, which is maybe not very friendly.
How could access be limited and the visitor be redirected to the /web/signup page if free sign up is allowed or to the /contactus page?
Thanks

Hi there,

On version 16, we have used OCA modules for both menus and pages. Very simple and handy.


Good luck,

Hi @all,

we've been running into the same issue but unfortunately the mentioned field "visible groups" is not available in v16 anymore...

You can find the corresponding git-discussion here: https://github.com/odoo/odoo/pull/83505

In my opinion, it would be best to solve this with a third-party module like https://apps.odoo.com/apps/modules/16.0/bi_website_page_security_hide_menu/ (we haven't tested it yet). Alternatively one can change the XML-templates with t-ifs to restrict access.
