[pmwiki-users] Different skins for non-admins

Hi, Greg: I'm sure PmWiki can do what you need. I'm not sure how the two
skins (admins vs non-admins) would differ, though. Are you primarily wanting
to hide the wiki actions (edit, history, etc)?

We create wikis for individuals, small businesses and non-profits. Sometimes
we just use colors to hide the wiki actions - we move the actions down below
the site footer, and set the link color to the same as the background until
you mouse-over. It's primitive but simple. Sometimes the wiki actions are
only visible to someone who has "logged in" by clicking
[[{$Name}?action=edit | login]] on a sidebar or somewhere.

Let me know if you'd like to look at some examples, if this is the kind of
thing you're thinking of.
