  • View public group epic: Guest+ (includes not logged in users which are implicit Guests)

Permissions to correct/implement for this issue:

  • If you can view an epic (as a logged in user), you should be able to comment on it.

Verify UX for cases when you cannot edit comments.

Original description

I mentioned some community members in &622 (closed), and I was surprised to hear that they weren't able to participate in the epic (https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/52092#note_128297214).

I took a look on another account, and noticed this:

  1. I'm logged in, but see the "Please register or sign-in to reply" container where the reply to discussion input box should be. Notice that I'm logged in, so none of the presented options would actually solve my problem.
  2. I see "This issue is locked. Only project members can comment" at the bottom, where we'd normally present the comment box.
    • It's not clear which project this is referring to, since the epic covers a couple of projects.
