The second time you edit during the same session, the pmwiki software bypasses the need to log you in because you are already logged in.  Kind of a duh...  but then if your new, it's an understandable security question.  If you close your browser, your session ends and you will need to enter the password for the first page you edit on your return to your wiki.  If your browser is set to store passwords, it will automatically enter your password (as ****** ) for you on your re-entering the edit system of your wiki. 

Since this security comment comes up with some frequency, perhaps it would help if there were some more obvious notification on the site/skin when someone is logged in that they were indeed logged in.

When I edit my Wiki, a password is requested because I set it up in config.ph

URL for my wiki is::

Current password is pgedit23 is you want to test it.

It works OK the first time,
But when I go to edit a second time, the password is not requested.
What's wrong?

Thanks for your help.
