Without seeing how you've configured permissions I can't help, I'm afraid.

Guests have premission to see and enter the board, yet they can only see the board, not enter...

So what permission profile are you using on that board?

ŦώεαЖзяŁ

I tried to use both the default and a custom one, and setting the guest permission for both to be able to see AND enter the board, and yet, no matter what combination of permissions I tried for guests, the guests can only at most see the board but never enter it...

Anyways, it doesn't really matter anymore, my original goal was go create this 1 board that did not show in the board list for anyone, but yet could be entered by everyone, I use a portal system and one of my blocks has a navigation tab for the threads inside this specific board, so hiding it from the board list would decrease unnecessary clutter. But when i tried to do that for the other groups, it didn't work either, if they can't view the board in the list, they can't enter it either even if they have permission to enter it... So solving my guest problem is mute since the enter permission is dependent on the view permission, which makes my original goal unachievable...

Sorry for the trouble :(

No it isn't, not with this mod. They are totally and completely separate for just that reason.


Arantor

It's not a bug.

You haven't set permissions for those users to enter the boards.

Of course I did, it was a OK before changing the board description, but after that BAM, no access. If you still think it was my fault, I'll install it and check again.

Arantor

So you went into permissions and actually ticked the permission for users from the permissions tabs?

Arantor

For which usergroup(s)? Which profile(s) did you add it to? Which board(s) use those profiles?

smith_13

I use only 1 (Default) profile. I added it to Regular Members.

Arantor

So you granted both view and enter to Regular Members in the Default profile?

Users with different primary groups won't be able to access anything because they're not regular members...

What exactly are you trying to achieve with this mod?

smith_13

Guests can view the boards and categories in home page but can't access further, that's all :D I installed the mod again, now it's back to normal, so far.

Arantor

Hmm, weird. Let me know if it acts up again.

smith_13

Hope I'm using the right tool for the job. I'll let you know if it strikes again, thanks!

The MOD is very good, but lacks something in it, when selected for the member not enter the picture in question, just fleece, something private for example .. the error that appears is this:

"An error occurred! The topic or board you are looking for does not seem to exist."

This misconfigured because it says does not exist, you can do to configure the message that appears? but the message is the own MOD, anything that has to change the default SMF ..

Thanks :)

If you want to change the message, Admin > Configuration > Languages > Edit Language > pick your language. Then in the dropdown, select Errors. The message is in there.
