Author Enabling authoring console when there are no posting in the channe

Hi all, I would like that when a web author clicks on a channel where there
are no posting in it, he would be able to see the web authoring console to
create new page to post in that channel.

Now when I set as nav. channel the default one, I see the cover.asp page is
called but in the page that appears there is any auth. console.

I would like to know if somenpdy could kindly indicate to what is the code
and the .inc files (maybe an example) I have to insert in cover.asp in order
to have in it the console.

Thanks and regards

Hi,

do not modify the cover page - btw it is also not required as the cover page
will contain the console if an author accesses it when being authenticated -
but use a channel rendering script.

You description seems to indicate that your have guest access enabled - with
guest access enabled you need to use forms authentication to authenticate
the user. You will not be automatically authenticated as the server never
requests the credentials.

Another alternative would be to have a separate web entry point for authors
where anonymous access is disabled.
Then IIS will ensure that the credentials are always requested from the user
and the user can be successfully recognized as an author.

Cheers,
Stefan.
