chilihead Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 In vB I was able to make admins invisible. If I force admins to be invisible on IPB I also have to have anonymous login enabled for everyone. Please make it so the "force" overrides this setting, so it can be off globally while maintaining usergroup control. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you!It's not like that already? :blink: If it's not doing it, I'd report it as a bug because to me, it makes sense that it should make them anonymous if that's the group setting.

Amy T Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 I thought it was a group setting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilihead Posted June 15, 2010 Author Share Posted June 15, 2010 I reported it as a bug and was told it is functioning as designed. In order for the "force" setting to work, anonymous login has to be enabled which allows anyone to log in anonymously.

Wolfie Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Well, hose me down and call me wet. I'll be darned. Okay well I'm in favor of this because I like the idea of being able to prevent others from logging in anonymously. Let's take it a step further though. Per group, anonymous option as "disabled" "enabled" "forced", with the core setting being the master switch as it is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy T Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 I agree it should be a per group setting and I honestly thought it was until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilihead Posted June 15, 2010 Author Share Posted June 15, 2010 This is exactly why I thought it was a bug. It makes no sense. I still think it could be a bug, how did it work before? I am new to IP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am new to IP.Before 3.0, there wasn't even a per group setting. So I guess it's working the same way now that it did when 3.0.0 first came out. I never tried to disable anonymous, only set my group to be forced anonymous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
