I'm just about happy with my installation of scoper, however there's one issue that's leaving me tearing my hair out.
I have the homepage set to a page, and the blog-post stream set to another separate page entitled 'news'. The news page can be read by anyone not logged in - but the moment they login now, with scoper, they are restricted from viewing it. If you see what I mean?
I don't want to have to tell users to log-out in order to read the news - as that would be just downright silly.
Has anyone any idea which settings I need to change in order to allow unrestricted reading of the blog page?

So your blog posts listing is presented through a WordPress page via a custom page template?
Check Restrictions > Pages and make sure "News" has the Page Reader role unrestricted.

Are you using some kind of custom query code in your page template? If so, can you post it here?

I need some instructions about how to configure my test site to simulate your "News page" blog listing. When I transplant the 2010 loop.php template code into a page template (and add a query_posts call), the blog listing is readable to unlogged users with Role Scoper enabled… so I'm not seeing a problem.
Did you also check Restrictions > Posts and Restrictions > Categories ?

Thanks for your help Kevin. So there was a conflict between the wp user settings and scoper?
So for future ref - we should keep all users with 'read' capability under wp roles in order for scoper to function as intended?

In your installation, I found that Role Scoper was not dealing well with users assigned to a role that did not have the read capability. I have not revisited that issue since but will make a not to do so and see whether that limitation can be eliminated.
