Hi!
I've set up a wiki where the intention is to have public viewing, but with
a restricted list of editors. Technically this was done by:
$wgWhitelistEdit = true;
$wgWhitelistAccount = array ( "user" => 0, "sysop" => 1, "developer" => 1 );
However, I am at a loss as to how I as a sysop can add new users. Do I have
to add them manually by SQL'ing the database directly? Or is there some way
or interface that I don't know about? Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Arne Meyer
PS: Please note that this is not a question about the principle of
restricting the list of people who can edit; we are aware of the drawbacks
of it, but allowing everyone to edit is unfortunately not an option for the
time being.
