Hi
Does anyone know a way of hiding Layer Groups from WMS viewed from a corporate GIS eg MapInfo? I have hidden all the individual layers which I don’t want to be used, but the Layer Groups are still visible including ones which are not in my workspace. The url is filtering by workspace and this works on individual layers but not groups.
Thanks for any help
Sandra

I don't think it's possible, even if it would make sense to have the group
disappear if none of the layers in it are visible,
it seems the code is not doing that today.
You can open a improvement request at jira.codehaus.org (get a login at
xircles.codehaus.org if you don't have one),
however, if you need this soon, I'd suggest you either prepare a patch
internally, and then share it with the community,
or look into the commercial support page at geoserver.org

Hi Andrea
Thanks for your reply, I was afraid that would be the case. I’ll try and add an improvement request as you say.
Regards
