<br>Hello,<br><br>I am new to Wiki and I get the following problem. Simply the presence of the line<br> $DefaultPasswords['read'] = crypt('secret1');<br>in config.php seems to break editing in an unrelated place.<br><br>Here is my scenario:<br>1) I created a group [[GPublic/GPublic]]<br>which I want to share GPublic with some friends, under a password. <br>I intend to keep the rest of the wiki private.<br>2) So, I used GPublig.GroupAttributes?action=attr<br>to setup a password for the new group.<br><br>At this point when I access GPublic (using the new group password),<br>I get the usual "*View *Edit *History *Print *Backlinks "<br>menu on top right of page and also a similar one under the page.<br>If I click 'Edit', it works fine, as expected.<br><br>Now, HERE IS THE PROBLEM: as soon as I add<br> $DefaultPasswords['read'] = crypt('secret1');<br>to config.php, and I reload GPublic, the menu on top left page disapears,<br>and when I hit 'Edit' on bottom page I get:<br>------------------<br>PmWiki can't process your request<br><br>?unable to retrieve edit form Site.EditForm<br><br>We are sorry for any inconvenience.<br><br>More information<br><br>Return to http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~luchaup/pmwiki/pmwiki.php<br>------------------<br><br>Can anyone, please, explain this behavior?<br>More importantly, can anyone, please, tell me how to grant password-based access <br>(including Edit) to a new Group in such a way that the rest of the Wiki is not accessible?<br><br>Thank you,<br>Daniel<br><br><br /><hr />Want to do more with Windows Live?
