On my drupal 4.6 site, once logged in as user/1 (admin) the Navigation block shows up as expected.

For all logged in users I set the following access control permission:

access content
create pages

As far as I can understand, this would result in the Navigation block to at least have links to create content for all authenticated users.

But, the navigation block does not show up for any logged in user expect for user/1 (admin).

And yes, I've made sure the Navigation block is enabladed in admin/block. I've also made sure to mark the option "Users cannot control whether or not they see this block".

In the forums I can find many posts about how to dissable the Navigation block for all but user/1. My situation is quite the opposite and I have found these two posts discussing the same problem:

http://drupal.org/node/80232

Maybe I've forgotten some simple configuration or...?

insure that you have in block/config show on every page except the listed, and leave the listed text area blank.

I have selected "show on every page", and the text area is empty.

This behaviour is strange - any other suggestions?

agreed it is strange. the only other way the menus wouldnt show AFAIK is if you had the menu items disabled in the adminster -> menus area. however if this was done, then they wouldn't show for anyone including you as superadmin.

I guess it doesnt hurt to double check?

In admin/menu all items including create content are enabled.

Where is the Navigation block definied?

Could my custom theme have something to do with this?

I've checked themes/my_theme/block.tpl.php and themes/my_theme/page.tpl.php and I cannot find anything strange.

Tried to change theme for user/2 but for any theme but my_theme, e.g. blue marine or box_gray, all I see is {head} {styles},,, {content}

My theme is based on box_gray but box_gray .

I'm having the exact same problem in 6.3 with a custom theme I transferred from 5.x.

Did you ever find a fix?

Thanks,
