Title: PLZ Anyone: Help needed (forum testing)
Post by: Alex on March 08, 2004, 11:40:29 AM

I made some changes to the forum engine.
Now it's possible to visit it also without a login.
"Guests" will be able to see the main page, forums and threads.
They will not be able to reply, send PMs, search, view profiles, etc...

This will help a lot for occasional users who still need to know us before registering ;)

Now i need some tests: may you try to enter as Guests and see if all works fine, try to "hack" privileges and so on?
The forum is big, it's possible i miss something here and there ;)

TNX!

Only thing I noticed is that you are still noted as on-line when signing of.

A little dealy is normal, unfortunatly it's not possible to force deletion.
Anyhow, after 1-2 minutes any member disappears from the online user list, may you confirm me this?

Hm... good point with the "taste before register" thing. Most of the users who never do anything are probably just guys who registered to see what the forum was like and didn't like it.

LOL!
Ok, solved ;)
Any other thing, expecially on security side of being a Guest and being sure he cannot do more than reading?
