public static AccessLevel QueryAccess(this IContent content)
Parameters
Type Name Description
IContent content

The content.

An AccessLevel

Remarks

Note that this method also checks the published status of the page to determine the actual access that the user has. I e if the page is not published the user will not see it unless he has "more" access than Read.

QueryDistinctAccess(IContent, AccessLevel)

Check for a distinct required access level. This is preferred to use over QueryAccess for performance reasons.

Parameters
Type Name Description
IContent content

The content.

AccessLevel requestedLevel

The requested level.

Returns
Type Description

Remarks

This method is optimized for speed, by checking preconditions before calling expensive methods.
