Vincent, Thanks for your reply. I am sorry for not changing the subject in using the reply mode. Usually I am careful to do that ... In fact I had the proper rights set, but obviously I have done something wrong in my messing with the files after the initial instalation of XWiki. After Brain's and your hint that setting the rights should do the work, I just reinstalled XWiki and with the same rights I don't have a problem. Thanks again, Darina

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

Hi Brain,
Thanks for your help. It works. The problem is that I would like to bypass the login screen, i.e. the user going to the space Web home url just to be able to see the pages in that space, without being asked to login (but s/he should not have the right to edit). I modified the skin not to show the login/register buttons but then the user seems to have all rights and is allowed to edit as well ...
Any thoughts in this direction?
Cheers, Darina

It's simple; XWiki Preferences has an option called "Always authenticate on edit"; set it to "yes".

Hello,
I just installed XWiki and created a space with pages that I would like to make accessible for view but not edit for users without making them register + login.
Is that possible?
Thanks, Darina
