Question

I've downloaded the TWiki source and installed it on our webserver. I then went to TWikiRegistration and created a User profile for myself. But I can't find the door through which I enter the site as a registered user. As I browse/edit my TWiki web, I'm shown as TWikiGuest user just as I am on this web.

Answer

There are a couple of things you need to do on the server first before the TWikiRegistration topic has any effect. The details are in TWikiInstallationGuide#Enabling_Authentication_of_Users.

Thank you

A big thank you to Matt Wilkie. Doing TWiki is going to be a bigger job than I thought. Time to call in reinforcements who understand more about this technology than I do.

You're welcome TWiki can be a bear to get setup the way you like it, but once there it will "just work" for a very long time. Hang in there, you are already past the hard part.
