    Solved Links dont work for Guests viewing?

    Post by coolcarper January 7th 2013, 4:43 pm

    Hi,

    I have Text links on some topics. The problem is that the link only works when I am logged in.

    It just shows the text details to a viewing guest but not the ability to click on the text and be taken to the linked page.

    It works fine when im logged in

    here is example topic where this happens

    http://www.carpfishingforum.co.uk/t150-french-carp-lake-for-sale-375000-champagne-ardenne

    can anybody explain why this is happening

    many thanks in advance.

    Save.
    That should help.

    I have tried this and although i dont have the word guests in my permissions to see links i have "All" which i have saved and it still does not work.

    What is strange is that it works fine on this topic where it reads "contact admin" as the link

    im still baffled??
