Hi,
I'm having a small permissions problem.
My Wiki contain private information so I want to control who can see it.
I added the following line to my LocalSettings.php.
$wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['createaccount'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['read'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['edit'] = false;
The first line allow me to create accounts as needed.
If I change the read permission to false, you can't read the site unless you're logged in. This is what I want. The problem is that you can't even see the login page!
Is there any way to make the login page the only viewable page while not logged in?
Thanks!
Simon

You need to add the page to the whitelist; see the directions on all this linked from the FAQ.
