Hi, thank you for the information. I have found another extension similar to Page-by-page
and I cannot do it works fine. I am doing something wrong. The extension is named
CrudeProtection :
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CrudeProtection and the
restriction only works when I create the page. For example :
<protect>User1</protect> gives permissions to read the page to User1. If I
create it using User2, an "Access Denied" page is shown on the screen ( Fine! ),
but then, if I try to read the page again I (User2) can see it.
Anybody knows what I am doing wrong? Why is the restriction working only on page
creation?
Thank you.
