Hello,
There is a request to have a wiki configured so that anonymous users can read the main page & a couple of others. The registered users should have full access. The wiki is configured for manually adding the users via Special:Userrights(no Ldap).
The issue is, users that were added via Special:Userrights are restricted to the same pages as anonymous users.
Here is the configuration: $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['edit'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['createaccount'] = true;
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['read'] = false; $wgWhitelistRead = array ( "Main Page", "Special:Userlogin", "Help:Contents");
What am I missing?
You're missing this: $wgGroupPermissions['user']['read'] = true; $wgGourpPmierssions['user']['edit'] = true; // this one is optional, of course
user is the group for logged in users that is overlaid onto the * permissions (which affect anons and registered users alike).
Adding that should make the above work fine.
