Wiki permission - anonymous not able to view wiki entry

posts: 2

Greetings,

I've just started using TikiWiki last night, for now my site is only editable by myself and I'm not planning to let others edit it. It's free for all to view though.

So I made my first wiki entry, say, "KFC" under the category "Fast Food".

Anonymous users can view the category "Fast Food", but not the entry "KFC". And I can't figure out what I did wrong.

Here is the permission settings :

Group :
Anonymous
Permissions:
tiki_p_view
tiki_p_read_blog
tiki_p_view_events
tiki_p_view_calendar
tiki_p_view_categories
tiki_p_view_categorized

tiki_p_topic_read
tiki_p_read_article
tiki_p_articles_read_heading
tiki_p_read_comments

tiki_p_view_faqs
tiki_p_view_file_gallery

tiki_p_view_sheet
tiki_p_take_survey
tiki_p_view_survey_stats
tiki_p_search
tiki_p_wiki_view_source
tiki_p_wiki_view_attachments

Thank you in advance ! biggrin

Hi Carsten,

Thanks for your response, the Anonymous Group was given permission to view the category "Fast Food" :

Group :
Anonymous
Permissions:
tiki_p_view_categories

And when I look at the wiki page "KFC", it says "No individual permissions, category permissions apply", which should mean that is has the same permission as the category, which, is viewable by anonymous.

When I access the wiki page "KFC" by entering the URL : http://wiki.example.com/tiki-index.php?page=KFC as an anonymous user, it prompts me to login.

So then I tried "uncategorizing" the wiki page, and it worked, it is now viewable by anonymous users.

I still can't figure out what went wrong - anonymous can view category, but not the wiki page within it. The wiki page is only viewable when it is not under any category...

Any help appreciated !

Thank you !
