Hiding from anonymous users

In many cases the Builder theme is used to allow Confluence to deliver glossy websites where the majority of users will be anonymous consumers, i.e. they won't be editing content.

Because the items in the Edit menu have to do lots of permission checking, you can improve performance of your site by hiding the menu from anonymous users:

Code Block

{menubar}
{editmenu:hideanon=true}
{menubar}

You can easily add any of the menulinks (see menulink macro) to your menu bar should you require certain features to remain available (eg. adding comments, etc).
