Description of significant consequences if you delete a targeted audience in SharePoint Portal Server 2003
In Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server 2003, when you delete an audience that targets Web parts of a Web Page, you receive the following warning message:
Are you sure that you want to delete Audience Audience Name.
The warning message does not describe the potentially significant consequences of deleting an
Audience.
If you delete an audience, the targeted listings no longer appear to the members of the deleted audience. Additionally, targeted Web parts that contain sensitive information may appear to everyone who visits the Web Page where the Web parts are located. By default, when a Web part does not target at least one audience, it appears to everyone. A Web part that targeted a specific audience appears to all the portal users when you delete the targeted audience.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003
Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
