Hi Mediawiki list, I would like to make the MainPage of wiki protected ( as in Wikipedia) I was search for pointers in documents, but unable to figureout yet.
How can I make the MainPage of Wiki Protected?
One more question I have is,whenever I go to the Upload page and try to upload any files, The Page just comes back again without uploading the content.
Previously it was working fine, where could the things might have gone wrong and how would I be able to mend it.
Thanks!
Senthil

- Redhat Linux 3.0 Enterprise

- PHP 4.3.2 ent

I had this same problem when I first started out a few months ago. :-) First off, you need to grant yourself sysop privileges. You need to do that manually in MySQL (I've been using phpMyAdmin), with the following string:
UPDATE user SET user_rights='sysop' WHERE user_name='My admin account';
And you replace "My Admin Account" with your own user name. After that, there should be a clear link on the quickbar that lets you "protect this page".
