I still want unregistered users to be able to see the front page, and maybe a page or two more - describing who we are and how to join up.
If I tick those options, surely they would not be able to see any Welcome page that I wanted them to see?
Well, I can't speak for releases newer than 2.6 - but for that it was really simple. Maybe you haven't found the 'uregistered users' settings on the users rights form ?
have a look at http://shept.org - it's xwiki powered does pretty much what you describe. I don't remember any particular problems with the rights setup ....

Hi Andreas, Your site is perfect for illustrating my concerns about the "open by default" configuration of xwiki. I was able to register an account (I used my real email, but it could've been a fake one), and was able to make a comment on your page here: http://shept.org/docs/Shept/Features Did you really intend to leave that page open for comments? I would guess not, since you turned off comments on your WebHome page. I find it very scary how easy it is to leave doors and windows open. I can shut the doors I find open, but I have no way of confirming that I have closed all the doors, especially the back doors that I do not know about (eg whatever is in the XWiki space) cheers Paul
