Re: [Mediawiki-l] Write Permission Limitations [was Re: Wiki-widePassword?]

Since it sound like you *know* who will be editing, the easiest way to do this is set the wiki to read only without account In localsettings.php set this. If not already there copy over from defaultsettings.php $wgGroupPermissions ['*']['edit']=false Then you create user login for those who can edit. If you need login abilities to everyone then you could change the level that gets to edit .. again using $wgGroupPermissions DSig David Tod Sigafoos | SANMAR Corporation PICK Guy 206-770-5585 davesigafoos(a)sanmar.com -----Original Message----- From: mediawiki-l-bounces(a)lists.wikimedia.org [mailto:mediawiki-l-bounces@lists.wikimedia.org] On Behalf Of Robert Fischer Sent: Monday, June 04, 2007 7:16 To: MediaWiki announcements and site admin list Subject: [Mediawiki-l] Write Permission Limitations [was Re: Wiki-widePassword?] I suppose I should back up and explain what functionality I really need. I'd like the wiki to be world-readable, but I need to limit who can edit pages. This is a blanket statement: only very certain users should be able to do any editing at all.
