Guest Posting Enabling
Hi:

I made ONE forum on my install Read/Write/Post Access enabled for "Guest" users... but when I log out and tryu to post as a mysterious guest, I get:

Error


Guest posting is not enabled

Do I have to enable this somewhere else, too?

You need to add a "Guest" user through the admin panel, setting the user status to "Guest." Gossamer Forum associates guest posts with this user.

FAQ??? We don need no stinking faq when we have this forum! Wink


Note... with GT Comm, one should enable in Forum and disable for Links SQL (and I would assume any other GT scripts) or you might run into problems (guest users doing things you might not want them to!).

Also, you should possibly consider a mechanism to disable viewing/editing of User Profile in GT Comm for a "Guest" user...
