Question Forum won't show to public

Hi,

I've just loaded kunena 1.6.3 on joomla 1.5.23 and created a few test parent categories with forums within.

I have them all "Published" and the public access set to "everybody".

For some reason it will not show any categories unless a user is logged in.

Is there another setting somewhere that i am missing?

Thanks in advance

Amanda

So that I may be sure I understand your question, please look at the following picture:

Hi, you have Registered Users Only "Yes" must be "No"

backend-config-security-Registered Users Only

Amanda:
Look at Forum configuration, then security tab. There you will see "REGISTERED USERS ONLY" switch that to NO.

Thankyou for such quick replies.

I knew it must have been something simple - just couldn't find it.

All fixed now
