Anonymous access to /etc/tags

Avatar

Level 1

Is there any issue in providing "read" access to project specific folder under /etc/tags to anonymous users? This is done for some of the geometrixx folders by default but not all folders under that. Is there anything important to keep in mind while enabling such access? or is it not right to enable such access?

This is a design decision on your end as to whether you want to provide anonymous access to this. We've set our website up with that permission in that manner.

Just to be aware, we've had problems with this permission. It gets reset whenever you do a CFP upgrade so you will need to make sure that you backup/restore it.

Hi Vivek,

Avoid it due to reason JE mentioned and as well as upgrade issue.

Thanks,
