Q: public and private Trac Wiki

Hi

I am afraid it might be a FAQ, but let me ask.

Is it possible to have two Wiki pages; one is readable for anonymous
users, the other is read/write-able for authenticated users ??

I'd like to publish a general explanation for anonymous, and an
implementation documents for auth-ed users in a project at the same
time.

Thank you very much.

Best Regards,

Hello!

You might want to take a look at the following site:

http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracFineGrainedPermissions

Granting specific read and write access is easily accomplished per Wiki page, and even per version of said wiki page.

I am a little confused on the 'same time' statement. I am assuming you mean, everyone receives one link, but if a person is not authenticated, they see a different wiki page? That I am not sure is possible. Non-authenticated users would simply see a permissions based error.

That might be some vhost authentication adjustment in the Apache configuration. But even then… I am trying to think how I would do that… and I am drawing a blank.

Good luck!
Jason

Yes, this seems what I am looking for. I'll dive and try it.
Thank you!!

Uh, let me say it again. in short, no they don't see different pages.
and It is ok to see an error page.

Suppose I am running Trac on a server, https://tracsite/ .
Then, I have Wiki pages under https://tracsite/wiki/ .

Now, I have two levels of Wiki contents.
One is for everybody who comes to this site, including 'anonymous'
users, under https://tracsite/wiki/panphlet/ and below.
The other is for core members, thus limited to the 'authenticated'
users only, under https://tracsite/wiki/details/ and below.

Anonymous users should be able to browse .../wiki/ and
.../wiki/panphlet/ (including subdirectories) , but NOT to access
.../wiki/details/ .

Authenticated users can browse .../wiki/ and .../wiki/panphlet/ and
.../wiki/details/ (inc. sub-dir).

Again, Thank you very much!
I'll try 'Fine Grained Permissions.'

Best Regards,
