I've modified my LocalConfig.php file to include the following at the end (MediaWiki 1.6.8):
$wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['createaccount'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['read'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['edit'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['createpage'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['createtalk'] = true; $wgGroupPermissions['*' ]['upload'] = true;
Also, the images directory and all directories/subdirs in it are fully writable.
Even with this, MediaWiki says that you must be logged in to upload images.
Is there a php cache that needs to be cleared for the new settings to be loaded? Or am I missing the effect of another setting.
Thanks, Ken

At present, MediaWiki will not allow anonymous uploads. This is partly due to the logging framework, which doesn't properly support anonymous actions, and probably partly due to historical concerns over drive-by copyright infringement and the like.
