Question

I want to limit who can edit a particular page. I am not the wiki administrator, but I did the following based on the doc.

1. created a group with:

---+!! myGroup
 * Set GROUP = Main.MyName 
 * Set ALLOWTOPICCHANGE = myGroup 

2. added the following line to the end the page I want to limit editing:

 Set ALLOWTOPICCHANGE = Main.myGroup

I then created a test user and was still able to edit the file.

Am I doing this correctly? I ran the testenv script & could email it but not post it.

Answer

If you answer a question - or someone answered one of your questions - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status selector is below the edit box.

• Make sure authentication is working properly for edit
• Make sure to create the group topic in the Main web only
• Use WikiName, that is MyGroup instead of myGroup
• The ALLOWTOPICCHANGE setting needs to be a bullet:

   * Set ALLOWTOPICCHANGE = Main.MyGroup

And don't forget, three spaces before the bullets
