How can we make databases internal now that we can not detach them from pages?

[Jimi Wikman]

I have used internal databases before to enrich other databases, like with countries or profiles. These databases are not supposed to be shown, or accessed, but only added through the database relationship field.

As I must have a page and as I must set permissions to allow users to see the database and the records, how is this supposed to work?

Am I missing something or is this one of those scenarios where I have to figure out how to detach a database from a page in the database for this to work?

It’s not. Internal data storage was never an intended use for Pages databases.

That is too bad because the only way I can do this now is to hack it in the database to detach the page and then add a redirect script on the page itself....

There is no way in which to have a page detached from a page in version 5
