Hi everybody,
I reinstalled a 2.2.81, and tried to set up a side-wide edit password.
Every page of the wiki should be editable for those knowing the
password.
So I created a password at this site:
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/PasswordsAdmin?action=crypt
...as I understood the instructions.
But I found that this encrypted password is not accepted by my page.
Only the password generated on my own wiki page
( http://mydomain.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?action=crypt)actually worked.
This costed me 3 hrs... )-:
I think, instructions are misleading - at least stupid me was misled.
Therefore, shouldn't the
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/PasswordsAdminpage should be altered
like this?
Change from:
"However, a wiki administrator can obtain and use an encrypted form of
the password directly by using
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/PasswordsAdmin?action=crypt on any
PmWiki url (or just jump to PasswordsAdmin?action=crypt)."
to:
"However, a wiki administrator can obtain and use an encrypted form of
the password directly by using
http://yourdomain.com/yourpathtopmwiki/pmwiki.php?action=crypt "
Cheers,
Wolf
