AI-generated from the code · Odoo 19.0

Adds a 'Groups' option in the Website builder so you can show a block only to portal users or only to internal users, on top of the existing 'Visible for Logged In' condition.

When editing a website page, blocks already have a visibility setting. This module adds an extra 'Groups' dropdown that appears only when the block is set to be visible for logged-in visitors.

  • 'No restriction': everyone who meets the logged-in condition sees the block.
  • 'Only portal users': the block is hidden from internal employees and from anonymous visitors.
  • 'Only internal users': the block is hidden from portal customers and from anonymous visitors.

To make this work, the module tells the website which kind of visitor is browsing: internal user, portal user or public visitor. This information is added to the page and used by the website's own visibility rules, so the block is shown or hidden automatically without any manual action.

A safety rule is included: if you later change the block back to a normal visibility setting, the group restriction is removed automatically, so a block cannot stay hidden with no visible option to bring it back.

The module only extends the website frontend behaviour and the ir.http session information; it does not add new menus or database models.
