Question [SOLVED] Guests can't view categories

Hi,

I have all the permissions set correctly to public viewing, but guests cannot see the forum categories at all.

Guests have their own group but it's parent is Public, which seems to work everywhere else except Kunena.

I have attached 2 pictures so you can see the settings and the error.

Once logged in everything works normally.

Joomla: 1.6.3
Kunena: 1.6.4
mytdu.com/forum/index.html

please check your settings:
Forum Configuration- Security- Registered Users Only , must be "No"

regards 810.
also if its doesn't help please add the report

it is set to No, and which report?

Hello.

Same problems for me.

Big problems for me with "access levels" on my Kunena categories and problems levels translations in french.

Joomla 1.6.3
Kunena 1.6.4

It works fine on Joomla 1.5.23.

hi,
Did you upgreded from J1.5 or did you did a clean install on j1.6. Please go to your Category Manager and select a Category and save it again.

Sorry. :blush:

Problem solved for me.

The Kunena 1.6.4 installation wasn't good.

The problem come that when you select the zip package, Joomla say to you "Installation OK" before click on upgrade Kunena button.

Kunena 1.6.4 is now installed on my website and it's OK for forums categories.

The problem for me was that joomla message who said "Installation OK" before the upgrade.

Excuse me for my bad english.

Thank you for that very good component.
