Description

Is it just me or is it meant to be like this?
On the links page settings there is a text field called Page information. In this field I have added some introductory text to the links page for the general user, but this is just displayed as n/a for anonymous users. The full text is visible for admin users.

Is this the way it is supposed to be?

Under the "Field defaults" field set on the settings page, you will find a "Default input format." I strongly suspect that you have one selected that is not available to anonymous users. The page information is also passed through this filter. So, yes, this is the way it is supposed to be, but you can easily fix it on your site.

Thank you!
That fixed it for me. I think what contributed to me missing this bit is that the input format selection is not located where I'm used to find it; immediately below the text box.
Anyway - it works like a dream now :-)

Thanks for a very good module.

It's where it is because: a) it was a late addition, and b) it applies to pretty much all the "extra" text boxes and I didn't want to have a different input format for each one of those.

Let's leave this where others with the problem can see it until the system closes it automatically.
