Guest password - did you mean it

mkpatil

I have setup a guest password for my account, but when I logon as guest (after clearing cache and all internet temp files) I am still able to go to 'control panel' change the go to customize page (change CSS for example), get to the password change screen for the primary user and everything. I was under the impression that guest password justs lets the guest upload, arrange and move just pictures.

Thanks,
Milind

Hi Milind, please standby, we're looking into it...

Hi Milind,

Try your guest password again. Logout, and log back in again with the guest password - ideally on a 2nd browser. If using same browser, clear your cookies first.

Hi Andy,

Thank you for your time, I tried but I am still able to get to the control panel (the button is still visible) from guest login, only difference I see (compared to primary password login) is that when I login as guest (after clearing the cookies) I see most of the fields as blank (example my address or email), but I am able to type in these fields and save them. I was expecting the control panel button to be invisible for guest login, just like the 'Edit Bio' hyperlink is missing on the main (home)page for guest login. I am able to get to the Bio page from Control panel -> account settings -> bio: change.

Thanks,
Milind

Andy,

Is it that the guest sees all these fields and all these setup pages that I am mentioning but when he/she saves changes nothing gets saved?

Thanks again,
