allow unregistered to edit wiki headlines

I have been successful in allowing unregistered users edit wiki articles using the edit wiki tab. I can also edit headlines when logged in but for some reason when I try to edit a headline as an unregistered user and click save, it just sits there and spins and never saves. Also I get no editor controls when editing as an unregistered user, which is OK with me as someone unregistered shouldn't have much control but I see no way to turn this on. Am I missing something? I tried turning off human verification for posts but that only seemed to effect the main editor when using the wiki tab.

When I'm back at work tomorrow, I have to turn on guest editing here and try it out for a bit. After I see what it actually does (versus what it's supposed to do), I will let you know.

Okay, I see the problem now. Guest users should not be able to edit by headline. Headline editing requires user fields that don't exist for guest users. In vault/functions/bbcode/headline.php, find:

Code:

$vault->misc['can_edit_sections'] = (

Add after:

Code:

$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] AND

Afterwards guests must use the full edit tab to submit edits to articles. The full editor sets the missing fields.

That removed the headline edit links for unregistered. Thanks!
