Hey,
Just want to let you guys know this. I've searched through the forum and google, but haven seen anyone posting this.
In cPanel or any other hosting management software, there is an option to password protect the directories. Either with .htaccess or the hosting control panel (ofcoz with frontpage extensions off)
A lot of people will do this to protect Joomla's almighty 'administrator' folder
If you do this, and when you enable the frontend editing/authoring on K2 , there is a problem.
Popups keeps appearing asking you to key in the username and password (this is if the user is not logged in to administrator folder)
There are cases where we give only managers the frontend admin access and not the backend. This will cause the case.
K2 frontend admin is using several javascripts , style sheets and images from the backend. So lets say they are using 10 of those files, the popup asking for authentication will popup 10 times.
So the solution is to put everything that k2 frontend admin uses in the root folder :)
Cheers..
