This plugin allows the administrator of a wiki to lock some pages, limiting
|
|
who can edit them using the online interface. This doesn't prevent anyone
|
|
who can commit to the underlying revision control system from editing the
|
|
pages, however.
|
|
|
|
The `locked_pages` setting configures what pages are locked. It is a
|
|
[[ikiwiki/PageSpec]], so you have lots of control over what kind of pages
|
|
to lock. For example, you could choose to lock all pages created before
|
|
2006, or all pages that are linked to from the page named "locked". More
|
|
usually though, you'll just list some names of pages to lock.
|
|
|
|
One handy thing to do if you're using ikiwiki for your blog is to lock
|
|
"* and !*/Discussion". This prevents others from adding to or modifying
|
|
posts in your blog, while still letting them comment via the Discussion
|
|
pages.
|
|
|
|
Wiki administrators can always edit locked pages. The [[ikiwiki/PageSpec]]
|
|
can specify that some pages are not locked for some users. For example,
|
|
"important_page and !user(joey)" locks `important_page` while still
|
|
allowing joey to edit it, while "!*/Discussion and user(bob)" prevents bob
|
|
from editing pages except for Discussion pages.
