Hi,

how to restrict user rights that by default noone is allowed to edit the wiki? I want that only users that are allowed can edit wiki. I tried to add

## User Rights $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit']=false;

in my LocalSettings.php.

After that I created a new user. But I could edit the wiki. I use mediawiki-1.5

I have the following:

$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['*']['read'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false;

And that works fine for me. People can browse the wiki, create users and edit the page when logged in.

Are you sure your settings arn't overwritten later in LocalSettings.php?
