    Hi Rick,
    thanks for your feedback.

    Those 3 permissions in the Anonymous group should be sufficient to allow anyone to post to the forum.

    This was my assumption, but... no. 🙄

    Let's start with the easy things first.

    • Did you clear your caches, after making changes?
    Not sure... now I did, but no success.

    • Confirm that your Registered group correctly inherits the Anonymous group.
    In the forum permissions?

    I can confirm: All permissions given to anonymous are also given to all other groups.
    Or did you mean something else?

    • Are you using any category permissions for the forums?
    For some boards I do - but not for those where ANONYMOUS shall be able to write.

    Now, let's look at your specific forum settings?

    • Is the "Flat Forum" option enabled? (This disallows new posts — users can only reply to the first post)
    It was active. Plus the function "Allows quoting in flat forums" - to me "Flat" meant "no tree structure within threads". A mistake?

    (Btw. Checked meanwhile - and yes, now I have a kind of tree structure...)
    Well - however: Switching to "Threaded" (and clearing the cache 😀) didn't solve the problem.

    • Do you have individual permissions for the forum? (They will override the global permissions)
    In some board I have - but again not in the ones Anonymous users shall be able to write.


    Any further suggestions?
    Thanks and
    best regards
    Uli
