When we link to non-public articles in a blog, that article is presented. What is expected is that a public level viewer can't see an item that requires registration.

Normally a prompt to login would be presented. Instead the full article is presented. What is the fix here?

Hello tom arriola,

Sorry for late reply to this,
Do you mean that when you insert the blog post link in your blog post, then this blog post link is not for public access, when the public user click the link, it will show out the full article?

If yes, is it possible provide us with your Joomla backend, which blog post are you mentioned can't view by public user so we can help you investigate on this issues?

The blog post is public. The readers are a mix of public and registered users. Some links are to content that joomla generally would protect based on user permissions.

Here is a page of articles. If you click on them you are prompted to login, like expected with joomla permissions/groups.
Link A

Here is a blog post with a link to content that requires registration. The link is marked "STACKIDEA..."
Link B

The article, when viewed from the category blog listed behave properly and access is denied. The article, when viewed from easyblog, is viewable regardless of permissions/groups.

I have listed login info. This is a test site so you can do little harm

Hello Tom,

I am sorry but I seem cant understand what you trying to achieve here.
What do you mean by:
The article, when viewed from easyblog, is viewable regardless of permissions/groups.
I think there is missing link in your previous reply:
Here is a blog post with a link to content that requires registration. The link is marked "STACKIDEA..."
Link B


Please be advise.
Thanks.

The links a and and b are both entered into the URL tab part of the reply. It see!ed like using that would keep the test site private.

Hello Tom,

I am very sorry for the inconvenience caused.
If I understand you correctly, you want to put link in the blog which linked to a private article to pop-up/redirected to a login page isn't?
If yes can you give me the link to the private article because there are no link in the link A and B which we can use as a reference-so that we can assist you on this issue and provide us with relevant screenshot if any.

If no, can you explain this again and can you attach relevant screenshot?

Please be advise.
Thanks.
