Hi Dan,
This doc states all of the areas that need to be set to enable guest access a default setting:
https://blackboard.secure.force.com/btbb_articleview?id=kAC70000000002PGAQ&cid=5007000000PUBuEAAX
It does not work retrospectively for courses and course menus though so to update those areas you'll need to actually update the database (bets to contact bb support for this) or click through manually.
Kind regards,
Tim

Subject: Guest Access - Content Areas Automation
Hello,
I have set up a new rule in the user feed file to grant all users using the ALLOW_GUEST_IND and this works fine but obviously if the course content areas do not allow guest access users will not see content?
I have been asked to investigate whether it is possible to automatically grant guest access to all content areas already created in our blackboard installation and to set the grant guest access option to default to yes when a new content area is created?
Cheers
Dan
