Linux-Is-Best Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 (edited) I wish for the option (in a future release) to allow guest posting. In our modern age, when I say 'forum,' many younger adults roll their eyes and envision a lengthy registration process so that they can post their thoughts and opinions. I have the experience of growth and productivity by allowing guests to post, who often join after, having already enjoyed the experience of my community (risk-free). I believe this option would benefit others. Edited June 1, 2021 by Linux-Is-Best clarity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rikki Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 You can already either allow guests to post, or use a simple 'post before registering' approach that allows people to post their message and then complete the signup process later. Typically allowing guests to post isn't a great idea, but the option is there should you want it. Linux-Is-Best and Jordan Miller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in the guest group, where is the option to allow you to post? I see no option in /?app=core&module=members&controller=groups > Guest Edited June 1, 2021 by Linux-Is-Best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
