Unauthenticated users cannot view contribution pages ?
December 07, 2013, 01:21:04 pm
I have several published pages which present contribution/event pages - However they are all showing Sorry you do not have permission messages when not logged in.  When logged in they show fine. 

Am I misunderstanding something?  Are there adjustments required to the ACLs I need to make?  What's up?

4.4.3 install did not create anonymous user role in WP

From Civi docs (https://civicrm.org/blogs/rajesh/wordpress-access-control):

Quote
One other drawback in Wordpress is that Wordpress does not deal with Anonymous users, which makes it hard for administrators to manage access to public event/contribution pages in Wordpress/CiviCRM installation. To overcome this, CiviCRM injects a new role (Anonymous User) in the wordpress instance, so that this role can be used to assign capabilities for anonymous users accessing public event/contribution pages.

This installation was a clean WP3.7.1 + CiviCRM 4.4.3 without going through any upgrade path.  The anonymous user was not created.  Is there a template or function for this user which I can run after the fact to remediate the install ?

Network Activating the plugin does not trigger the plugin's activation event, therefore does not trigger the creation of the Anonymoous User role in the WP user-space.
Deactivating (Network Deactivate) and then activating as a single site only plugin resolved the Anonymous User role question.
