Question

I need to run my Twiki site in "all authenticated" configuration, so without authentication nobody can see any page - unfortunately also not the registration page for new users.

What can I do so that new users can register themselves?

Environment

TWiki version: 02-Sep-2004
TWiki plugins:  
Server OS: Fedora Core 3 Linux
Web server: Apache 2.0.51
Perl version: 5.8.5
Client OS: Win 2k
Web Browser: Firefox

Answer

ALERT! If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

I have not tried this, but this should work:

  • Copy the HTML text of the registration form and paste it into a statc unauthenticated HTML page
  • In twiki=bin/.htaccess set all scripts to require valid user, except for the register script

Many of us are also in this siutuation.

Web level access control can be over-riden on invidvidual topics. Some topics in the TWiki web need to be VIEW-able by TWikiGuest.

Obvously we need a better or more specific cookbook to address this kind of situation
