Hi!

I would like to have surveys private (selecting private in plone
workflow) but being able to be used by respondents. Now we have the
respondents be able to respond only if I activate "Allow Anonymous" on
the survey and the survey is public (otherwise I get an AttributeError
on acl_users.

Am doing wrong something?

Hi Yuri,

Not understanding what you are trying to do. Surely by setting the
survey to private, it dissapears from anonymous view? Why would you want
to set the survey to private and allow anonymous users, or are you
trying to set the survey to require authentication as well as hiding it
from anonymous view?

I think you're getting an attribute error, as if allow anonymous is not
selected, then any user trying to fill in the survey will get checked
against the local acl_users in the survey.

Cheers
Michael

you're right, surveys has to be public and I can correctly restrict
using "allow anonymous", enabling respondents to answer.

I had some bug report about not being able to fill the survey, maybe
some subquestion somewhere was private (using plone 3 this is very
common cause the content is created private by default).

I've found that importing from a survey made in 2.5 in a 3.X instance,
make acl_users missing two plugins, session and auto_group. Adding
them back fix the issue.
