Add Control to Sitefinity Page with Default Permissions
When adding controls to a Sitefinity page programmatically, by default it's going to set restricted permissions so that only users in the Administrators role can view them.
You can easily change this so that the widget is installed with the default permissions it would get by being dragged onto the page with the following code:
var ctrl = pageManager.CreateControl<PageControl>("~/Path/To/Control.ascx", "ContentPlaceholderName");
pageManager.SetControlDefaultPermissions(control);
pageData.Controls.Add(control);
