Thanks again to @RGJ to take the time to debug and think trough the issue with me, helping me to spot my configuration error in using the `everyone` group. As in my installation only logged in users have access to discourse contents, I initially failed to understand the difference between `everyone` and `trust_level_0` – but now learned, that Discourse handles these quite differently. So no issue with the plugin, and even more thankful for the added warning, as I fear, I would have fallend in that trap sooner or later again… 😃
