So, the admin chooses the contents of the overlay portlet, and the choice is stored in the database as a site preference. The unauthenticated user can check/uncheck the checkboxes to enable/disable overlaying of those calendars. Where is the selection remembered? I think the session makes most sense. Did I get this right? Sounds like a plan. The next step would be to create a wishlist issue and wait patiently. Or find an interested Python developer that has some spare time. > Scenario #1: (snip) > Scenario #2: (snip) I have to say I didn't quite understand those scenarios. > Doesn't it make sense to give this existing feature to > unauthenticated users?
