That's a good idea with the conditional on the main homepage. I am not that familiar with the syntax to do that, actually, so if anyone can show me how to do that, I would appreciate it. Will php work somehow on an individual page?
Uh oh. You're right about my duplicate login trouble.... It's happening because of this: The way that I access this page is through a DNS alias -> http://it/wiki The actual URL is -> http://cfc-ct-it01/wiki Pmwiki is using all the links with the "cfc-ct-it01" as the server... so when I click one, the URL is completely different than how I logged in. Is there a way to change the wiki configuration so that the links all use the alias as the base, instead of the actual servername? Thanks so much, Tegan. I didn't expect toidentify that second problem so quickly. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tegan Dowling Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2008 3:14 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [pmwiki-users] homepage for users On Wed, Sep 24, 2008 at 1:16 PM, David Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hey, everyone. > > > > I am setting up a pmwiki wiki for our business and I have LDAP > authentication working.

Are you familiar with the syntax for conditional stuff? You might have something on Main/HomePage that says, in essence, If logged in w the rights to view (or edit) Group1.TestPage1 Then (:redirect Group1.HomePage:) Else if logged in w the rights to view (or edit) Group2.TestPage2 Else ... Might that work? You could even suppress the standard redirection messages. OR if there's a problem w having multiple redirections on one page, then maybe you could do something similar, but under tested conditions, (:include Group1.HomePage:) > > > Is it possible for a certain user to have a homepage that is not the default > homepage?

I've experienced something similar -- my hosting setup assumes all hosted sites have the address syntax http://www.example.com; if one logs into http://example.com (i.e. without the www), one sees the behavior you've described -- could that explain it? _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users The information contained in this message, including any attachment hereto, may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
