1. After uploading an image, the side bar disappears/breaks for "guest" uses who don't have access to the attachment. But for logged in users side bar and attached image looks fine.

What can be done to avoid this?

2. Is it possible for guests to see the attachment thumbnail but can't open it? Right now, guests who don't have access to attachment, don't see anything in the post so they don't even know there is attached file. Any setting can fix this?

I disabled "Can view attached files" in "read only access" in forum accesses.

I also disable "Front - Can access to attachments" in "Guest" in User groups.

This is a result of incorrect customization of the WordPress theme or page template. Please leave a direct URL to the forum page.

I'm sorry, but there is no way to show the thumbnail if the mentioned permissions are disabled.

@tomson Here is the link for the question 1:

Design tips – New Document – Design & color separation – Line Table Screen Printing Community

In the post, there is written content and attached image. Image is placed before content. But guests who don't have access to attachment sees like this. If attachment goes after content, you see content. But side bar still broken.... Any suggestion please.

I deactivated " Advanced Attachments" plugin. And it looks ok. So, I think the plugin caused this issue not the template or page. My license expired about a month ago. Updating plugin will solve the problem?

@andrew-james-b-paloyo,

I have checked your website, there were no issue with the sidebar, it was in its place.

Hi @andrew-james-b-paloyo,

The problem is not from the plugin.

You can let "Front - Can access to attachments" enabled, and disable "Can view attached files"

By these settings, the users will see attached files by the below screenshot:

Yes, I did changed exactly like that but still no file name appears. Side bar disappears.

I activated the plugin and this is how it looks:

DIY Plan for Platens and Platen Brackets in Silkscreen Printing – Printing – Line Table Screen Printing Community

Under the youtube video there must be "attached file link".

I also noticed that, on the topic list page, some topics don't show attachemnt clip icons even if they have attachments(pdf files)..

But if visitor have premission to access & view the attached file, side bar and link(thumbnail) looks fine like here:
