Issue
- I cannot see web contents as a guest user, they are not visible in the Web Content Display or Asset Publisher
Environment
- Liferay DXP 7.1
- Liferay DXP 7.2
- Liferay DXP 7.3
- Liferay DXP 7.4
Resolution
- The web contents and the web content folder they are in must have the "VIEW" permission for Guest role
- Using the below property will not allow the web content to be displayed if the containing folder does not have "VIEW" permission for Guest role. In this case, there can be two solutions:
a) Add "VIEW" permission for the Guest role on the appropriate web content folder
b) Set the mentioned property's value to false and restart the server:
Set the following to true to automatically check the view permission on
parent categories or folders when checking the permission on a specific item.
For example, if set to true, to be able to have access to a document,
a user must have the view permission on the document's folder and all its parent folders.
Or, to have access to a comment, a user must have the view permission on the comments's category and all its parent categories.
Defaults:
permissions.view.dynamic.inheritance=true
