PHPRunner General questions

I have a database that I want users to be able to view read only without a login. I have also hard coded a username and password for editing the database. As I recall, in the past I could create a link directly to the list page and receive "guest access". To edit the user just logged out then logged in as the hardcoded user. Is this no longer possible with 4.1?
Thanks.

Get to the security page.

Go to the advance options and set the guest log in.

That should work.

The advanced options is not available if "hardcoded username and password" is selected. I found I need to setup a table with a user and password field to pull the username from. "Username and password from database" has to be the choice to access the advanced login page.
Thanks for your reply.

As it turns out "advanced options" is grayed out if username is hardcoded. I created a user table and set it up that way.
Thanks for your reply.
