I'm pretty sure it's *not* the user (TWiki doesn't actually handle authentication; it uses Apache .htpasswd files and HTTP auth for that). My next guess woukd be some kind of revision code ('t' for "time"), but TWiki uses "rev=1.1" everywhere else, so that doesn't make much sense.
It (the t= parameter embedded in "edit" URLs) appears to be the time the page was generated by the "view" script. A very cursor look at the sources doesn't tell me what it's for. I'd guess it's to help handle collisions when two people try to edit once. Anyhows, I'm now confident dropping it won't hurt anything, and have updated the "Edit this table" links in those two tables to actually do an edit. I used TWiki variables for everything, in an attempt to make them more robust. That is, rather than embed http://wiki.gnhlug.org/twiki2/bin/edit/Www/UpcomingEvents in the page source, I used %SCRIPTURL%/edit/%WEB%/%TOPIC% instead.
But it [TWiki] "knows" who made the change when it displays revisions, doesn't it? Nah, that's probably drawn off the authentication.
I believe so. TWiki uses the username from the HTTP server and passes that to RCS. If there is no HTTP authentication, it uses TWikiGuest. More info here: http://wiki.gnhlug.org/twiki2/bin/view/TWiki/TWikiUserAuthentication
> http://wiki.gnhlug.org/twiki2/bin/edit/Www/RecentEvents Works for me, too, although I edited at 10-til-3 PM and it said "Www.RecentEventsr1.4 - 02 May 2006 - 18:54" - looks like a 6 hour shift?
Not this again. :) Okay, I just changed the TWiki configuration to display local time (rather than GMT/UTC). That involved editing the /home/gnhlug/twiki2/lib/TWiki.cfg via SSH. Better now? :) -- Ben _______________________________________________ gnhlug-org mailing list gnhlug-org@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-org
