October 29, 201015 yr I don't think this is a bug but it's definitely an issue. I linked a friend of mine a piece I'd uploaded however I ended up having to give them my username and password so that they could listen to it as they kept getting asked to log in. Can we please make it so that ANYONE can listen, but you must be registered to comment/like etc etc.
October 29, 201015 yr Agreed. We've been discussing this at the staff meetings. It would be awesomely useful.
October 29, 201015 yr yeah I can't invite anyone either, YC looks totally blocked for non members, is it possible to make the pages public but the download score link for members only ? would that be enough or you want public the music and score ?
October 29, 201015 yr Personally, I don't have any problems in regards to letting guests comment on posts. As I've mentioned in the meetings, we do (and have) gotten a lot of professional conductors, music directors, etc. visiting the site. It would be nice to let them have access to viewing and commenting are works. We have plenty of moderators as well to watch for spammers,etc... so I don't see any point really in limiting viewing/commenting access to strictly members. Makes us seem like a closed community afraid to let our music be heard.

Makes us seem like a closed community afraid to let our music be heard. I disagree here - having open comments is just an invitation for out-of-control spam. How many pieces do we have? Sure, they'll come to the top as they're spammed, but there's enough for staff to do that's a bit more important than cutting noise. But having it as an open portfolio isn't a bad idea. Didn't realize it already wasn't.
October 29, 201015 yr I agree, open comments won't work well, but public listening, of course, I'm sure that will be changed soon
October 30, 201015 yr I think it should be like YouTube. Pieces are public (unless the user wants it private), but only members with accounts are allowed to comment.
