    Unregistered guests can't view blogs

    Hi, I have a problem with the blog software.



    Here is a link to a blog that I have. I have set permissions for unregistered users to be able to view blogs in blog settings as well as usergroup settings but yet guests still get hit with the user login field. Why? What am I doing wrong?

    There should be usergroup permissions, you can't see them?

      What? Sorry, no that is not what I am saying
      I can see them and I changed them to allow unregistered/guests to view blogs. I changed the usergroup settings but the blog is still unviewable.

        Ah, sorry. I guess I didn't read your post that well. Well I'm not sure what could be causing this. Good luck.

          From memory, there's a level of inheritance based on Forum viewign permissions. If those are generally set to not allow guests to view the forums, then this may feed through to the Blogs also.

          Try setting the Unregistered Usergroup to be allowed to view forums then using access masks, block them from the individual forums.

          Messy and a little time consuming I'm afraid....

          If that works, let us know and I'll pop a suggestion to break that viewing link into the Suggestions Forum for the next release.
