Bug - custom page with option "visible to anyone" not available for not logged users.

Question

1. Create a custom page with option "visible to anyone" and put the link to the footer.
2. Click on the link - it works.
3. Then log out.
4. Click on the link -  "No privilege error".

Seems that despite the "anyone" option, there is still a verification for logged users.

EDIT: 
I noticed that my old custom sites work ok. And if I edit the site, then it gets the error.
So sth must be wrong with saving the site access variable.

Comments

I can confirm this, having the same problem right now. Won't show "Anyone" custom page links to literally anyone.

Something is causing the function qa_db_get_pending_result('navpages'); to return a value of -106 value for the "permit" field if it is 150:

  [6]=>
  array(9) {
    ["pageid"]=>
    string(1) "6"
    ["title"]=>
    string(3) "FAQ"
    ["flags"]=>
    string(1) "1"
    ["permit"]=>
    string(4) "-106"
    ["nav"]=>
    string(1) "M"
    ["tags"]=>
    string(3) "faq"
    ["position"]=>
    string(1) "1"
    ["heading"]=>
    NULL
    ["_order_"]=>
    int(2)
  }

Setting permit to NULL in the database brings the pages back:

  [5]=>
  array(9) {
    ["pageid"]=>
    string(1) "5"
    ["title"]=>
    string(4) "Wiki"
    ["flags"]=>
    string(1) "1"
    ["permit"]=>
    NULL
    ["nav"]=>
    string(1) "M"
    ["tags"]=>
    string(4) "wiki"
    ["position"]=>
    string(1) "2"
    ["heading"]=>
    NULL
    ["_order_"]=>
    int(1)
  }

UPDATE:

Still can't figure this one out, but it's something to do with the selectspec not loading.  Loading the selectspec in qa-page.php fixes the problem:

    function qa_page_queue_pending()
/*
    Queue any pending requests which are required independent of which page will be shown
*/
    {
        if (qa_to_override(__FUNCTION__)) return qa_call_override(__FUNCTION__, $args=func_get_args());
        
        qa_preload_options();
        $loginuserid=qa_get_logged_in_userid();
        
        if (isset($loginuserid)) {
            if (!QA_FINAL_EXTERNAL_USERS)
                qa_db_queue_pending_select('loggedinuser', qa_db_user_account_selectspec($loginuserid, true));
                
            qa_db_queue_pending_select('notices', qa_db_user_notices_selectspec($loginuserid));
        }
    
        qa_db_queue_pending_select('widgets', qa_db_widgets_selectspec());
        qa_db_queue_pending_select('navpages', qa_db_pages_selectspec());
        qa_db_select_with_pending(
            qa_db_pages_selectspec(),
            null
        );
    }

Yes, this must implicitly convert the permit value type into INT SIGNED. Works great, thanks. You guys rock !
