• Readers field in Category needs to accept Default and Anonymous user name

    By Emma Davidson 2 decades ago

    I've been trying to set up a Category with named users as Authors and Response Authors, but Default and Anonymous users as Readers.



    It seems that the Readers field for the Category does not recognise Default or Anonymous as user names?



    Because domBulletin automatically adds names from Authors and Response Authors to the Readers field on saving the Category, I need to put all the other Readers in the Readers field so they can read posts in that Category.



    I don't want to create a group for all users in my organisation's Address Book, because we have anything up to 65,000 users in our organisation, and not all of them have an entry in the Address Book. We have single sign-on turned on and working well on domBulletin for Default and Anonymous users, I just want to add them to the Readers field for the category!



    Am I missing something, or do we need to make a minor change to the domBulletin template?
