>* PITS:00459 - ability to create shared groups/pages for farm installations
All of the suggestions for 2.1 sound great, but the sharing one is of
particular interest to me.
Currently I have a wiki farm with 7 fields - 1 is "open", 1 is
read-protected by a password, and the other 5 are password protected
by Apache BA.
I have a "HowTo" group that I share amongst all 7 fields. It is
edit-protected so that only I can change the content.
I want to share one "Profiles" group amongst the 5 Apache BA
protected fields. The other 2 fields need to keep their own Profiles groups.
I have implemented the first (sharing HowTo) using the recipe on
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/UseCommonPagesInAWikiFarm but
there seems to be a bug that causes edits to shared pages to update
AllRecentChanges in the field that the user "lives" in rather than
the field that contains the shared copy.
I am nervous about using the recipe on the Profiles group, and have
not done so. The bottom line for me is, I need to be able to specify
which fields have access to particular shared groups.
