Hi everyone,
I have a new install of modx that won’t let me browse the front end while I’m logged in manager. I get the same ’site is offline’ normal users are seeing.

any ideas what could it be?

Are you sure you are logged into the manager?

Yes, I log in manager, then click the ’preview’ link and it opens in new tab, I can see the ’home’ page but once I click on any link to other pages it shows the offline page instead. I tried clearing cache and refreshing but still no go.

hhhhmmm, I see that with IE7 i can still browse the site, but FF and opera won’t let me.
