Editing "Home Page" is not changing the home page for Anonymous users - It only updates /home and not /
I want to show latest public items on the front page even for Anonymous users. Adding blocks only works for Logged in user.
Steps:
- I created a test site with Spacenook 14.0.
- The user NebulaNerd has posts with Audience "Public".
- I added the below blocks to Home page (nothing changed in the block settings. Just added them to the page)
- All Feeds (Timeline) - Timeline • Visible for Anyone,
- All Feeds (Outline) - Timeline • Visible for Anyone
- Public Feed (Timeline) - Timeline • Visible for Anyone
Observations:
- When NebulaNerd is logged in, can view these posts at the corresponding blocks.
- It does not work for Anonymous users. I can only see the log-in form on the home page.
- Added note - But Anonymous user can view the content using a direct link to the content.
Expectation:
- If a content is published for Audience "Public" , then the blocks "All Feeds" or "Public Feeds" should show the public content. Specially when the block is set "visible for anyone".
Are these the correct blocks ? Or Am I missing something in the configuration.
EDIT - EDITED THE Title so people facing this issue can find it easier.

Hello @highlightings !
You may use the Feed (Outline) block for the Unathentificated users only.

I tried that. Still it does not work
- Used "feed outline" with different settings (First all the levels selected and later with Only Unauthenticated selected). Cleared the cache after changing. Still I cannot see the public content on the main page without logging-in.
- Using firefox in Private browsing mode when not logged in, just to make sure browser is not caching..
First with with All levels selected.
When logged, I can see the public posts.
But without logging in , only this page
Next with Unauthenticated only selected, I cannot see anything even when logged in (as expected)
This is the home page where I added the block
I can PM you my test site if needed..

Found out that the blocks work in a Custom page created by me. But they do not work when added to the default System Home page.
Is that normal ? DId I miss any settings specific to home page ?

Oh my goodness... I spent the whole day with this.. There is already a ticket on github. github***/unacms/una/issues/4720 (I cannot post link) with the issue I am having.
From the ticket: 4720
One is example** and another example**/home. It should be only one, or it should be redirect from one to another.
So I was editing "Home Page" under "System Pages" and this is editing the page at url /home . So I don't see the expected results when I go to website***/ on the browser . At the same time these blocks worked on the custom pages that I created.
Anyways, noting it here if someone faces the same issue..
@LeonidS , Would be great if there is a global setting (studio / settings**) where we can set the home page url to any path we wish (/ home, /group etc). Makes it easier for us to play with the home page layout..
-
Now how do I solve this ? Any workaround or should I wait for the github ticket .. ?
-
Thanks to @LeonidS , this is solved now.
Have to disable the Welcome page splash here - studio/designer.php?page=splash
Now the changes made to "Home Page" is visible when going to the website /
