The file:
/core/vb/api/node.php

The method:
getCreatepermissionsForEdit()

You check there if nodeid, channelid, userid etc are not defined and do "return array('createpermissions' => false);" if it's like this. The problem is how you do it:

if ... OR empty($node['userid']) OR ...

Posts of guests have userid = 0, the function empty() in PHP returns true if its argument is equal to 0. I agree it could be unexpected behavior of the function but it is how it works.
I guess it could be patched changing this code to something like:

... OR (empty($node['userid']) && ($node['userid'] != 0)) OR ...

This guy already seems to have found the issue, it just hasn't been fixed yet.

Whether or not it has unexpected results is yet to be discovered.

Thank you. I saw your post at .com as well.

Working in the code makes my head spin. I'll play around with this later.

Thanks again!
