Category not loading through direct link when log out

Bug
1

Good day,

I’ve just made a new installation of Discourse here: https://club.magiaycardistry.com/

I want to add a link to this sub category in my main website: ✅ Preguntas frecuentes - Club Magia&Cardistry

The problem is that if I try to access the link loged out, the website seems to break and fail. But if I access that sub category with the sidebar menu, there is no problem.

Here is a video:

And here the console errors:

I am new to Discourse and I might have done something wrong.

Thank you for your help.

Hi @illusionandcards - thanks for the report! It looks like this error is related to a fairly new feature, which is controlled by the ‘default subcategory on read only category’ site setting which you’ve enabled.

We’re digging into the problem and will make a fix, but in the meantime I think you’ll be able to get things working by turning that setting off. Can you give it a try and let us know if it works?
