This is the 'reader' view of the knowledgebase. Users do not have to log in to see the Public Area, although they may have to log in to read articles if you have set your knowledgebase up that way. The other view is the Admin Area. Users must log in with admin, moderator, editor, author or contributor permissions to see the Admin Area.
