Guest Login Problem

When implementing "Users can see and edit their own data only" the guest account stops working.

Attempting to access a page using guest gets the following: "You don't have permissions to access this table Back to login page"
Does anyone have a suggestion on how to solve this?

Nothing is wrong here. Guest user don't own any data and won't be able to see anything. Only authenticated users can access the table where "Users can see and edit their own data only" option turned on.

My problem is this:

I need site users to be able to only viewand edittheir password and editanything they post. Then I need it so that guests can viewanything that anyone posts.
It should work kind of like this forum. I'm the only one that can change my password and my posts but at the same point guests can see all posts.
Any suggestion on how to set this up? I know it can't be too difficult but I'm not seeing the solution on my own.

The solution is easy.
Login table: Use "Users can see and edit their own data only"

Posts table: Use "Users can see all data, can edit their own data only"

I have no clue why I didn't think of that. I guess this is why you are an admin and I'm a newbie.
Thanks for the help.
