I want Guest to see member profiles

For some reason my Guests aren't allowed to see user profiles. I copied and pasted the url of my profile into Facebook, but when someone clicks on it, it takes them to my sites front page. I've already checked permissions and Guest is set to view user profiles but still no luck


Here is my site: www.Hometown-Directories.com and my profile that I'm trying to get guests to see is here: http://hometown-directories.com//index.php?action=profile;u=1

Any help is appreciated!

Facebook breaks URLs at the first ; so it won't work when viewing in Facebook. I believe it has been reported to them in the past, too.

I think I solved it...I copied the url, then replaced the "http://" with "www."

Now my guests are able to click and go straight to my profile

Huh.... they've never worked properly for me regardless of anything else because of the ; but if it works for you, great.
