It looks like content access module is the culprit. once i disable the module, everything works fine. I now uninstall the module and looking for a access control module that works well with this great module.
hey! i came across this same behavior this weekend, it delayed the launch of a website as my views depended on this great module.
Has anyone found out what is causing this? it is strange to have a not required check box that worked only as admin... unless i am missing something. I've tried filtering out the empty references but still only display as admin.
thanks.
