[pmwiki-users] Is there a way to set a different password from HomePage to the other pages of a group by config file?

passwords for actions for individual pages or groups are stored with
the page, respectively the GroupAttributes page for groups.
You can only set them via action=attr.
There is no way to set passwords for individual pages or groups from
within a local customisation file like config.php, because of the way
password attributes are stored on the pages themselves.

You can only set wiki sitewide (fieldwide) passwords in config.php.
You shall not use group or page customisation files like Group.php or
Main.HomePage.php to set passwords, as these will not protect those
pages fully.
