Public Ideas Site

Hi,

 

I'm trying to setup a very basic public ideas site with the default IdeasHome.page as the home page. I'm working in a developer organization and I've followed the instructions here:

 

http://blogs.salesforce.com/ideas/2008/11/ideas-public-si.html

 

When I try to go to the public site, I get the following error:

 

Authorization Required

You must first log in or register before accessing this page.
If you have forgotten your password, click Forgot Password to reset it. 

 

I have checked to make sure that the ideas community is shown in the customer portal

I've made sure the guest user has the Ideas Tab enabled and that the guest user has read access to the Ideas object.

I've enabled login access in the site for the customer portal.

 

I'm working in a developer organization and I haven't written any code, I'm just using the point and click interface. I know I'm probably missing something really simple but any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks!

Scott

Have you enabled home page and search page for your site? ideas pages use these pages as well. You can enable them via the site standard pages related list. You also need to enable the ideasHome visualforce page for your site.

Thanks Bulent,

 

That was it, hadn't enabled the standard pages, I knew it had to be something simple I was missing :)

Hi. When I go to add Standard pages, I get the following. Any ideas?
