GitHub user fangq added a comment to the discussion: Understanding Admins name/role and Members name/role settings
I see - I remember when I tried to make my databases visible for anonymous users, I had to remove the `_admin` role from Admin and Users in the permission tab of each database. After that, anonymous users can read and write - I had to block them from writing using the `validate_doc_update` handler, see my code above.
