Shrimpo Posted August 2, 2014 Report Share Posted August 2, 2014 I noticed that the Journals section doesn't show when I view the forum while I am not logged in, is this normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h4n Posted August 2, 2014 Report Share Posted August 2, 2014 Yes that normal, thats probably to keep them a bit more private to just members only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OblongShrimp Posted August 2, 2014 Report Share Posted August 2, 2014 I don't think I did that on purpose.....what are your thoughts though, should they be open to guests? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soothing Shrimp Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 Market should be perhaps for members only, too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metageologist Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 Market should be perhaps for members only, too?I think the market being visible to the public is a good thing as it allows nonmembers to see the variety of thing for sale. However if I'm not mistaken they can't PM or buy without registering. Even if the register to buy initially they will most likely eventually participate in the forums. Thoughts?

Shrimpo Posted August 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 Some people like to join to get knowledge and also aquatic supplies for their tank, when they don't see the market place in a forum they will think that it doesn't exist there and may not join the forum.

Soothing Shrimp Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 I think you guys are correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OblongShrimp Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 ok I think I cleaned it all up. All forums now should have the same permissions. I had apparently had several different sets of permissions throughout the sections. I am making everything available to guests. I figure it doesn't do us any good if they sign up just to view certain sections so why not let them see those sections as a guest. countryboy12484, ctaylor3737, h4n and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OVT Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 I'm signed in and using Tapatalk but I do not see the Journals forum? I would like to start a couple of mine. Thanks! v1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
