Hi,
I'd like to set my mediawiki up with two completely different views:
- 'Normal' users will see the wiki as if it was a static web site. None
of the options or tabs normally seen along the top of the wiki page or down the left side should be visible to them at all. They will not be able to log in or edit any pages.
- Admin users will see the wiki as a normal wiki, with all the default
options and tabs visible, once they have logged in (the link to the log-in page will be from an external site)
Is there any simple way to do this?
I haven't tried, but the skin is fairly late to be loaded (I think) so you might be able to detect the user via an extension and then dynamically update the default skin and which skins are available to the user... essentially pigeonholing them once you know what kind of user they are.
Cheers, Rob.
