I have two web roles: one for anonymous users and another for authenticated users. I want to assign a specific web role to authenticated users, allowing them to access only the profile page and two other pages and update records for contacts and accounts.

Additionally, when this contact record is accessed by a backend user, I plan to use a plugin that, under certain conditions, will assign an additional web role to the user. Once this additional role is assigned, I want to ensure that the user has access to all pages within the system after assigning the second webrole.

However, I have removed all web roles from the Web Page Access Control Rule, following the guidance from this article:

You can create custom Web Roles in the system and associate them with your Contact records - the association itself is typically a separate process, either manual or automated (for example via your Plug-in).

The blog article you shared basically hides the Profile page from all users, is that what you want? It's not a common requirements amongst my projects anyway.

Web Page Access Rules are super handy to keep pages secure, it's something I often use, as an example:

- keep the authenticated Web Role with basic access

- your custom Web Role should have more elevated access

- add Web Page Access Rules with all relevant pages for the Custom Web Role

- Users won't have access to the specific pages until they are assigned the custom web role
