Question Guests can't view user profiles when native SEF on

I need to allow guests to view user profiles at Kunena Forum. I turned on this option at the Kunena config and found that while native SEF turned on - it doesn't work (still redirects guests to login form). While native SEF is OFF - this feature works (guest can see profiles).

Thanks for your question. Can we eliminate the possibility of a J! 1.5.23 issue with browser caching. Have your refreshed your browser cache and does this make a difference?

I have seen something like this reported before but I thought it was fixed in K 1.6.4.

So we have to investigate this further.

Is there some particular reason that you do not want moderators of this forum to see your website (you've concealed this information by editing your K 1.6 configuration report)? We'll do our best to help (and we will respect your privacy - which is why this information is hidden with the

Go to Menu Manager. Look at Kunena Menu menu items. Change Profile menu item: access level Registered => Public.

Thanks, this helped.
