I have a Drupal 6.x install, and I've added some google and financial times news feeds via the aggregator module, and i have them displayed in right hand blocks.

the curious thing is that these feeds are not visibile when i log out - which implies that casual visitors wont be able to see the feeds.

is there some setting somewhere that allows this i.e. that anonymous visitors can see my right hand rss blocks?

thanks.

I haven't used the module but looking at the permissions hook:

<?php

/**
 * Implementation of hook_perm().
 */
function aggregator_perm() {
  return array('administer news feeds', 'access news feeds');
}
?>

I'm guessing that you need to ensure that anonymous user has access news feeds permissions (admin/user/permissions)

Go to yoursite.com/admin/user/permissions and look through the anonymous user's permissions.

yes - thats where the problem was. the aggregator module had "access news feeds" turned off for anonymous users.

thanks!
