Hello all,
It would be of a great help if someone can provide me the code to be added to the LocalSettings.php file to add a new group named Engineering with similar permissions related to the group Bureaucrats. Currently only 3 default groups are available in our mediawiki.
Any help will be appreciated
Thanks ~Vineeth
Hello,
I think this will help you on your way: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Userrights
Huib,
Thanks for the Update.
So if I add
$wgGroupPermissions['engineering']['delete'] = true; to LocalSettings.php file
Will it add a new group named engineering.
But I guess it'll not have all the permissions of group Bureaucrats.
Any idea on How it can be implemented ???
Thanks ~Vineeth

Hi,
When you look on that page you will see all the "defaultrights" when you want a new group with all the rights sysops have you can copy all the rights for sysops from that page and paste them in your localsettings.php when you change the sysop in the name of the group you want it will be created that way.

Huib,
Thanks for the Update.
So I'm going to add the following lines to my LocalSettings.php file
$wgGroupPermissions['engineering']['read'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['engineering']['edit'] = true;
One final question:-
Instead of copying all rights is there any way to use a common code like using * (I'm not sure) ? If I add the above code to my LocalSettings.php file will the group engineering be added to the default groups mentioned in the attached image?
Thanks for all your support.

If you can add any right, then yes. See http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgAddGroups
