    • Some Menu Items Don't Display

    Posted by martcol

    Hello,

    I have made my own menu following a tutorial on the Smarties site. I have Home, Pages, Articles and Categories.

    I selected "anonymous" in the menu but only the Home and Pages items show in a page without logging in. They all show when I login as admin.

    I know I must be misunderstanding something and/or doing something wrong and would appreciate a tip to put it right.

    Thanks

    Can you try removing the group permissions in your menu, and rely on the page permissions to control visibility of the menu items? If I understand your question, the way object permissions and menu item visibility changed some time ago. I'm not sure what the Smarties article says, but group permissions no longer need to be set during the menu making, and in fact can lead to errors.

    Thanks Gary

    That got me sorted.

    I deselected the the "group" in edit menu options and used "Assign global permissions" to extend the anonymous group permissions.

    My menu options display when not logged in.

    That's exactly what I asked about.
