Hi !
I've been asked to create a website as simple as possible with : - search - only 2 or 3 users can add (or modify) content to pages - probably 5 or 6 pages
I think I could use MediaWiki as I know how it works and how to create extensions and special pages I'll need.
Is there a way to achieve the followings ? - disable create account (just login), I (the sysop) will create the 2 accounts. - remove links and disable Talk, edit, history, protect, delete, move, except for sysop (me), the 2 users will have very simple pages, they are not familiar with wiki and complex pages, they want very simple, I'll have these functionnality in case of "emergency". I know how to change the Skin, but I don't know how to really disable the page for not sysop, I don't want a visitor who knows how works MediaWiki to see history. - remove some special pages, give access to others (e.g. Allmessage) only for me (sysop)
Thanks in advance,
Sylvain

why use mediawiki for such a thing? I would better think of other wiki flavor (like pmwiki), much simpler.

you can do this by editing the LocalSettings.php file
# # Permission keys given to users in each group. # All users are implicitly in the '*' group including anonymous visitors; # logged-in users are all implicitly in the 'user' group. These will be # combined with the permissions of all groups that a given user is listed # in in the user_groups table. # # This replaces wgWhitelistAccount and wgWhitelistEdit # # The following line should be commented, otherwise these settings will # throw away the settings on DefaultSettings.php (you probably don't want this). # With this line commented you will only overwrite the settings you explicitly # define here (that's what you probably want). #$wgGroupPermissions = array(); $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['createaccount'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['read'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['edit'] = false;
As for the other requests, I am unsure, I just installed my first media wiki over the weekend so I too am very new to it.
