Hi all,
I apologize if this has been asked before, but when I look at the demo site there: https://demo.opensource-socialnetwork.org/ basically I have to register to see anything. Is there a way to install the open source social network so that everything is public (profiles, discussions) so that people are more enticed to joining? If so, is there a demo of a public social network installation?
Thanks so much!

Joey - cool domain name :)
David - basically I want to set it up like Joey, you only sign up if you want to participate, you can still read.
Is there a way to have the "homepage" display the latest posts instead of the signup screen? I mean on Joey's site I know to click on "Posts" but it would be nice to see them from the get-go

Hi Michael,
I did just that with my site, https://odd.news by adding links on the landing page to the site's content.
I also wanted everything to be visible to the world and signing up was only necessary if a person wanted to comment on a post or share something.

Asking for trouble, no? You would be busy moderating.
What sort of theme would be your website? Education?
Or do you mean just a demo site,; elliminate the hassle of signing up etc?
