Full Version: Guest Posting Not Working
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
We are trying to allow guests to post in one of our forums and as far as we can tell we have all settings done correctly, but guests can still not post. It shows the "Post Thread" button but when you click on it, it says the guest doesn't have permission.

We have all of the options for viewing the board and threads selected as well as the options for posting new threads and new replies in the permissions for the guest member group. I've attached a screenshot.

All of the permissions under the categories and boards that we want to allow guests to post in should be correct as well. We have View, Post Threads, and Post Replies all under Allowed Actions. The three specific forums all have the same permissions and the categories they are under also have the same permissions set.

Three of us have combed through everything at this point and we can't figure out where we're going wrong, so some help would definitely be appreciated. Thank you!

You say Guests, but your group is labeled Visitors. How do Guests (a specific default group) get promoted to Visitors?

It's still the Guests user group, we just renamed it to Visitors.
The plugin in this post may be of help.
