@esskay303 if there is a Developer having free Time for fixing this Issue. Maybe @laoneo or @Bakual in this Case, but its their Decision on what Issue they are willing to work.

[laoneo]

I guess a event is not triggered correctly.

[Bakual]

The problem is how the "Show Unauthorized" thing is working. If that parameter is active, then the layout only displays the introtext hardocded. See https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/staging/components/com_content/views/article/tmpl/default.php#L135

The plugin event however doesn't act on the introtext, it acts on the $item->text property in the view class. See https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/staging/components/com_content/views/article/view.html.php#L166-L177

So if someone wants to take and fix that, he needs to refactor the "Show Unauthorized" feature so it uses the text property or triggers the evens on the introtext.

Any update on this? When it is likely to be fixed?

If somebody can give me raw code I will test it thoroughly...

[laoneo]

Please test #17175, which should fix the issue.
