Hi there,

I downgraded to XOOPS 2.0.13, and reinstalled everything. I somehow can't get the forums to show up for users who aren't logged in:

http://www.horseshowsrus.ca/showez/modules/newbb/

I checked the groups and the blocks of newbb and everything looks like it's set ok.

Also, I was trying to display this HTML page for users who haven't logged in yet:

http://www.horseshowsrus.ca/showez/modules/horsey/index.php

What I did was I created a custom block with the HTML only, and set up the perms for anonymous users. I could not get it to show up for anonymous users on the top page. When it did show up, it showed up for logged in users, which I didn't want.

Help.

Thanks,
Deb

On your website, if I click on View all topics under Main Options, I can see all topics. What version of newbb are you using? Have you checked the database tables?

No I didn't fix it already, that's just what the page should look like ("Something for everyone..."). I put that HTML in a custom block, but the custom block won't show up for anonymous users only, it also shows up for registered users. I want the "Something for everyone" page to show up until you login.

I dunno, I can't seem to get newbb to show up for anonymous users. It is newbb 2.02.

Help!

Thanks,
Deb

Consider updating to CBB 3.04. It is the latest version.

Did you go to Groups > Registered Users and uncheck the custom block? You will need to do the same with Webmasters. Have you tried to show a module block using only Anonymous permission to see if you are having problems with all blocks?

Thanks for that - I got my custom block working just hunky-dory. I still can't get my chat forum to show up for anonymous users though, so I guess I will need to upgrade newbb.

I'll be so glad when all this upgrade/downgrade is over with - I started with XOOPS 2.2.3 but a bunch of things did not work. My site feels a lot more stable now and I've been able to add some nifty modules that I was scared to add in 2.2.3.
