[pmwiki-users] (:if construction

[lists at basel-inside.ch]

Hello

I cannot exactly answer your questions, but here how I implemnted auth:

I was inpired by
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/LoginLogout
(but usually a login is not necessary, because it is prompted, when  
you do an action  which is not authorized, but sometimes it's  
necessary for example to find all pages when searching).

on the following site I use pmwiki auth:
http://wprj.net/wprj/chor/index.php/ABC/HomePage

a valid user woulde be: chormatt/chormatt

(for some reasons I have a default user, which is assigned  
automatically, same logik but different authorisations for any user).

(:if authgroup id:surfer:)
*[[Profiles/{$AuthId}|Gast User]] [[http:?action=login|login]]
(:elseif authid:)
*[[Profiles/{$AuthId}|Home {$AuthId}]] [[http:?action=logout|logout]]
(:ifend:)
(:if authgroup id:pogay:)
*[-%green%''{$Version} {$userlang}''%%-]
... options for my user, not iteresting for others.
(:ifend:)

Interestingy I had to check the user with (authgroup id:user)

I hope my implementation can help you to implement your auth correctly.

--- my farmconfig

     /* relevant auth config */
     $AuthUser['pogay']    = '....';  /* can  be defined locally */

[..] other config and plugins

   /* after execution local configs */
     $DefaultPasswords['read']   = 'id:pogay';
     $DefaultPasswords['edit']   = 'id:pogay';
     $DefaultPasswords['upload'] = 'id:pogay';
     $DefaultPasswords['admin']  = 'id:pogay';
     $DefaultPasswords['guest']  = '';
     $DefaultPasswords['auth']  = '';

     $HandleAuth['source'] = 'guest';


     require_once("$FarmD/scripts/authuser.php");   /* User based Auth */
