This doesn't -prevent anyone who can commit to the underlying revision control system -from editing the pages, however. - -To lock a page, log into the wiki as whatever user is configured as the -admin, and in your Preferences page, you'll find a field listing locked -pages. This is a [[ikiwiki/PageSpec]], so you have a fair bit of control -over what kinds of pages to lock. For example, you could choose to lock all -pages created before 2006, or all pages that are linked to from the page -named "locked". More usually though, you'll just list some names of pages -to lock. - -One handy thing to do if you're using ikiwiki for your blog is to lock -"* and !*/Discussion". This prevents others from adding to or modifying -posts in your blog, while still letting them comment via the Discussion -pages. |
