Hi Gilles,
I think that if you played with cfg.d/user_roles.pl you'd accomplish
want you want. I think that if you removed any read privileges from the
default role (I'm not sure which one it is, but it could be
$c->{public_roles} or probably $c->{user_roles}->{minuser}), or even if
you removed this role (minuser) totally from the archive it maybe could
do the job. But I tried it in one of my repos, and it didn't work, so
maybe I'm doing something wrong. Maybe it would be wiser if I removed
some privileges from these roles instead of removing the roles totally.
Maybe another approach would be to alter cfg/templates/default.xml to
conditionally allow to view items (which would allow access to
hand-coded urls to views, which you wouldn't disire), or to change views
and searches to return results only on authenticated users (somehow).
I know I didn't help enough, but I'm trying to give you some ideas where
to start from.
Good luck!
