You can create a website password (at the bottom of the Edit Site Pages, it is the SYSTEM PASSWORD), then provide the password to this guest. Or you can add this guest as a classmate and on the Manage Classmates, DETAILS page for this "classmate", say show on class list "as a guest". They will then appear at the bottom of the Classmate Profiles in a separate section called "GUESTS"

If you want the person to have access to all profiles the second option he mentions is the better. As I understand it the first option would not allow access to restricted profiles.

Thanks. I went with the second option. Doesn't the first option give them access to everything including the administrator's rights? I don't want to give them anything but viewing rights to all the classmate profiles.

No, the System Password does not give access to ADMIN ACCESS for the person visiting your website. It only makes the Password Protected pages so that they are visible to them. You can change the System Password at any time, so if you don't want them to have access, just change the system password. Also, on the Edit Site Pages, scroll down, you will see "Allow viewers with the System Password to access all restricted Classmate Profiles. " checkbox. So you can restrict the System Password from viewing the password protected restricted Classmate Profiles.

Kyle and Bob, Thanks for the information. Bob: Thanks for the link to your website and the SAMple profile entry. I sat there and got a lot of laughs from reading what you entered. Glad to see someone has a great sense of humor! Ted
