I am here again, but
maybe it is important to know.
Conserning:
Forum Configuration --> Edit Features and Options --> Allow guests to browse the forum = NO
Manage Permissions --> Permissions by Board (your Board name) --> Unregistered Guests = YES
In this way my MEMBERS can see the topics in the PORTAL and not the guest.
The only negative thing about this, is that you HAVE to login to see something from the board.
In NORMAL situation it has to be:
Forum Configuration --> Edit Features and Options --> Allow guests to browse the forum = YES
Manage Permissions --> Permissions by Board (your Board name) --> Unregistered Guests = NO
There is some future in SMF, where it goes wrong, i mean next:
1) give guest permission to see some topics
2) in this topics i have add an attached document
3) give the guest NO permission to download these attached document
if you go to my site everything is going ok, means you can actualy see the topics as guest (& pitty: also the attached document).
if i click (as guest) on the attached item, SMF ask you to login and login and login and ........
for this reason i have uninstall temporary the TPortal and the results seems to be the same.
as long this error will be there (i have send allready a note to SMF) the portal can NOT react on a proper way.
Note:
Many people are thinking: why let them see the topics & not the attached documents?
1) because SMF haves this settings to do it
2) because the topic contains explanation about the document who is attached
I hope i am not disturbing you too much with this kind off info.
(sorry for my bad english)
