Question

When I use the MultiEditPlugin, the .lock file starts off with my wiki name but when I save the section the lock owner changes to guest.

I traced it down to the call to $query->remote_user(); in savesection returning nothing. The other info (path, url, web) are OK.

I am not familiar with this Plugin, but with the EditTablePlugin, all table edits are done with the authenticated viewauth script. That ensures that the remote user is set during save.

I figured it out. I forgot to add protection in .htaccess for the script savesection.
