New subject: [Mediawiki-l] Make Wiki readable only for logged in users

20 May 2006

You have to add your login page to the white list. See includes/DefaultSettings.php for
more details:

# Pages anonymous user may see as an array, e.g.:
# array ( "Main Page", "Special:Userlogin",
"Wikipedia:Help");
# NOTE: This will only work if $wgGroupPermissions['*']['read']
# is false -- see below. Otherwise, ALL pages are accessible,
# regardless of this setting.
# Also note that this will only protect _pages in the wiki_.
# Uploaded files will remain readable. Make your upload
# directory name unguessable, or use .htaccess to protect it.
$wgWhitelistRead = false;

 Betreff: [Mediawiki-l] Make Wiki readable only for logged in users 

...
  I want to disable access to my wiki for non logged in
users. I've read
 this howto: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:User_rights but i have one
 question.

 Now i can't login, because i keep redirected to the 'you must be logged
 in" page. In the howto it says that i should change the function
 LoginToUse in includes/outputpage.php. Should i add the given code or
 change the old code with the new?

 I tried to add the code and to change the old code to the given code, but
 both give me an error.

 The howto says the following:

 Main Page is not mandatory for this list. To avoid "login required"
 redirect page, you can change includes/OuputPage.php loginToUse():

 function loginToUse() {
     $titleObj = Title::makeTitle( NS_SPECIAL, "Userlogin" );
     $this->redirect( $titleObj->getFullURL() );
 }

 What should i do?
