Alright!
This apparently has bread an entirely new problem:
I have 4 blocks defined for my main page:
1 left-center
1 right-center
1 bottom-left-center
1 bottom-right-center
These 4 blocks are visible to anonymous users and each block is visible by 1 group that relates to that block.
(this way, if you were not logged in, you would see all 4 blocks but if you log in and you belong to one of the 4 groups, you would only see that block)
I am able to set each block only to be visible on either:
All Pages or
Top Page
This is fine because I only want them to see these blocks on what I would consider the top page.
and what I would consider the top page to be is the first page they would see. for example if you just got to my site, you would be at the top page. If you just logged in, you would be in the top page, but belong to a certain group.
The problem is that if I set them to be viewed on the top page, none of them are displayed-- ever!
If I set them to all pages, they are always displayed on every page, which is not what I want.
I searched for others who had the same problem, but it was generally different enough to not affect me.
