[Phpwiki-talk] ACLs

[Ben H. <ph...@gr...>]

To all who helped implement ACLs - Thank You!  I am very glad to have
this feature. =20

A few questions=20

* Is it possible to disable read access for non-signed in
users?  I would like to protect a few pages from guests.  I have found
the dot-pages notation (name a page .CantBeReadByAnon), but it would be
nice to apply this same restriction to regular pages at will.  I tried
removing "Every" view permisisons through the ACL page, but it didn't
seem to take effect - non-signed in users could still see the page.  Is
there any relation to the dot-page and the real-page?  i.e. does a page
named FooBarBaz have any relation to one named .FooBarBaz? =20

* Is it possible to make groups of users (boys girls) and allow the boys
to create a page that the girls can't read, and vice versa?  In other
words, is it possible to define access based on *who* you are rather
than your authentication status (bogouser, authenticated user, etc.)?  I
see a reference too it, but not quite enough for me to figure out how to
actually do it. (and the note to self to explain better.  :)


Hmm....  After looking at /wiki/index.php/PagePermissions (didn't find
it at first - I was looking at the ACL page which was empty / didn't
load), I see that there is some info there on how it works. =20

Is there any chance at someone who knows what's going on doing a little
more / better documentation?  I don't mean to insult in any way the
author of the current documentation - I just don't see the whole picture
yet and I'm having a hard time finding all the pieces.  I know
documenting sucks and is hard...  :/


Thanks,

-ben
