Hi Erik and welcome to our

What does your XSLT file look like?

And how do you access the published nodes? Are you navigating them on the website or using the preview from the umbraco backoffice?

Hi Jan,

The frontpage should render a menu with links to the content nodes (which it does for me but not for other visitors). So when I go the the frontpage (not preview, but just the real url) it shows me the menu but others can't see it. If other people add content nodes which should turn up in the menu after publishing this does not happen for me (I can't see the node). However, if I add a content node myself and publish it it shows up in the menu.

My xslt looks like this:

xsl:stylesheet [ ]>
<xsl:stylesheet

Hi Erik

Hmm, yes that is indeed odd.

I think you should perhaps check permissions for network user and iusr accounts and see if they are sufficient. Eventually try to just give full permissions to the everyone role to see if it does a difference and then take it from there...

Is there something special about the setup? Is it hosted in a cloud or does it use load balancing or something third?

/Jan

Hi Jan,

I don't know if there's anything special about the setup, it's just a commercial hosting package. It sounds to me like some sort of caching problem, but then I would have expected the navigation menu not to be rendered for everyone instead just me. I'm not sure if it uses loadbalancing through multiple servers which could explain it, I think it's just one server.

PS For the record, the nodes in the backoffice are visible for everyone. The problem just occurs with the rendering of the navigation menu on the "real" website.

T.i.a,

Erik.

Republishing did the trick. Still, it's weird that I could see the menu and other people didn't. Anyway, thanks for the help.

Erik.

Hi Erik

Sorry for my late reply.

It's good to hear you got it solved by repbulishing. Must admit I'm not sure why you could see the nodes but others could not see them. Have never encountered that on at sinle server setup before.

If you encounter this again please don't hesitate to let us know.
