[pmwiki-users] Problems causedf by recent PmWiki updates

[marc]

I'm having to spend a fair bit of time debugging problems caused by 
recent changes to PmWiki. I went from beta 31 to beta 34, and this is 
where the problems occurred. I can run everything up to the save before 
the beta 34 update - taken literally before updating - and all is okay, 
thereafter I've hit quite a few snags that have taken quite a lot of 
time to resolve.

One set of issues was due to the changes in stdmarkup.php. This caused 
quite a few local markup functions to fail. Most of these I have 
resolved by changing the Markup() "when" parameter to 'directives'. 
However, I don't have a full regression testing suite, so I'm not yet 
sure whether I've cleared all the problems.

However, one problem has me stumped. My login process uses authuser with 
authentication against a database and has worked fine until beta 34. 
However, now I can login everywhere except the farm's home page. This 
happens on all farms in a wiki.

I also use the 'get rid of Main' recipe. Now, when I remove 'get rid of 
Main' I can login on at farm HPs.

So, presumably, something needs to be adjusted in 'get rid of Main' so 
that authentication works as expected.

Here's the 'get rid of Main' code I have in farmconfig.php.

###### This section gets rid of Main 
###########################################
## add default group (Main) to page search path 
$PagePathFmt = array(
      '{$Group}.$1',           # page in current group
      '{$DefaultGroup}.$1',    # page in default group (Main)
      '$1.$1',                 # group home page
      '$1.{$DefaultName}',     # group home page
);

$pagename = MakePageName('Main.HomePage', $pagename);

## reformat page urls to omit default group (Main)
$FmtPV['$PageUrl'] = 'PUE(($group==$GLOBALS["DefaultGroup"])
        ? (($name==$GLOBALS["DefaultName"]) ? "$ScriptUrl/" : 
"$ScriptUrl/$name")
        : "$ScriptUrl/$group/$name")';
$FmtP["!\\\$ScriptUrl/$DefaultGroup/!"] = '$ScriptUrl/';
###### End of section that gets rid of Main 
####################################

Any ideas? Thanks.
