users cant register cause it says they need to log in first
ISSUE SUMMARY:
when users click on register they are taken to the jomsocial front page with a messaege saying login first please
i suspect its a rights problem, but i havnt been able to find where from.
STEPS TO REPLICATE:
1
click "register", in the top left
2
jomsocial front page is displayed with system message "please login first". additionally clicking on the register button on this page lands in the same place
You have menu misconfiguration. Joomla! uses JomScoial menu item ID as parent menu item for all JomSocial related pages. usually it should be JomSocial frontpage. In your case it's "Connect List" menu iyem in "hidden connect" menu. You've set it as "Registered".
This menu item ID (517) is inherited by all JomSocial pages also with access settings. Thus users are asked to log in before they could register. Just set this menu item to Public... or fix your menu creating JomScoial frontpage menu item and make sure it will have lowest menu item ID.
