I received some great feedback on protecting my site. I've decided to use 'AuthUser'. When I try to edit the Site.AuthUser page, or even adjust its attributes, I get the following error:

method not implemented

I've added the

include_once("$FarmD/scripts/authuser.php");

line to my local/config.php script.

Any thoughts?


Thanks again!

Hi all.

I think I'm trying to do something that pmwiki doesn't support. I
would like to require admin approval of all updates to the site. I
know that sounds like a pain, and would lead to slow development of
the site, but I'm going to use this in a school setting and want to
do everything I can to prevent students from posting things that are
inappropriate. Any ideas?

Thanks for your help!

IMHO, you'll need to be a bit more flexible while also promoting/ developing student responsibility. Offer student passwords that you can remove for abuse. One can break it down to group passwords if you wish so a student can only edit their group. Set up some trusted students as moderators who agree to monitor their group, or various groups within the site.
This frees you to just monitor their moderator work.
Use the notify and site.notifylist feature and set the moderators to recieve emails for changes in the groups they are moderating. They (not you) need to moderate those changes for appropriateness and deal with it appropriately. If abuse becomes a problem, set up a moderator court where the students are judge and jury for abuse and how to deal with it. Typically, when given such responsibility, students are stricter on themselves that you might otherwise be. Plus you are insulated from being the bad guy...
Always, Dr Fred C
