Make unpublished resources accessible for everyone?

Is it possible to make an unpublished resource public and accessible to everyone as it were published?
I checked the manager settings but i could not find anything like that.
I would like to use publish/unpublish for archiving purposes.
Basically, if published some content with an image and a link to the resource is displayed on the homepage.
Once unpublished, the resource is no more available in the homepage and becomes available only from an archive page.
I am using pdoResources (&showUnpublished='1') to show the fields but evidently the linked resource is not public/accessible to not logged in users.
Any suggestion? [ed. note: fredela last edited this post 8 years, 11 months ago.]

I think the best suggestion is change your strategy, because unpublish means unpublish, no body can see it!

Might be better if you create a TV filter for the pdoResources results.

for example:

Create a TV called "filterTV" with a dropdown YES==YES||NO==NO

and include this in your pdoResources:

&tvFilters=`filterTV==YES`

That means it will display only the pages that has a YES in the "filterTV"

it's a similar behavior but without touching the publish/unpublish setting.

You can make ALL unpublished resources viewable by anyone by giving the anonymous use view_unpublished permission in a Context Access ACL policy for the 'web' context, but I'm with ysanmiguel. You should really change your strategy. You could use a TV or use an existing resource field that you don't need like description, introtext, longtitle, searchable, privateweb, hidemenu, etc.
