Issue Summary
Hi,
I've a problem with this module.
I can create link with freelinking, but when I click to the link, I have an access denied.
The strange thing is that also with the "admin" user I obtain this message, instead with a special group of user called "superuser", I can access the content. Anonymous and authenticated users can not access.
I don't know if this is a freelinking problem, anyway, could you help me in some ways?
thanks.

#1
Right now, users need the "access freelinking list" permission to follow freelinks. This should change in the future. Can you verify that this permission (or lack of it) is the problem here?
#2
I can confirm that this problem still persists in the most current release.
Actually, I have to give the anonymous user the permission "access freelinking list" to let him follow freelinking links.
In my opinion, thi sis rather a bug than another type of problem, because if a page is filtered for the anonymous user with the freelink syntax, it should also be possible to follow that link and go to the linked page - without the need to allow the user access the full listing page.
It's not really a security bug, but it's a bit annoying, an hard to find what's wrong as it's not explained in the INSTALL.txt
I propose to add this line to the INSTALL:
5. Give the anonymous user the permission "freelinking module-> access freelinking list"
(BTW, also in INSTALL, the path to freelinking settings is: admin/settings/freelinking)
#3
I remove the "needs more info", because I added this info in my previous post
#4
Fixed in freelinking-6.x-1.x-dev. Will be part of the next official release.
#5
