Allowing anonymous users (was Re: [xwiki-users] hide documentation link)

[Vincent Massol]

Hi Darina,

First, please do not hijack discussion thread, this is bad  
netiquette. This thread was about "hide documentation link". Nothing  
to do with your question.

To answer your question, you should simply set the rights you want  
(you want XWikiGuest to be given the view permission). See the  
documentation on the rights in the user guide on xwiki.org

Thanks
-Vincent
