Hi Lance,
The admin pages are indeed currently not intuitive, and an update of them has been long overdue. As part of the HADDOCK template upgrade, I'm also reworking the admin pages layout, and make them accessible via the User Preferences screens. (only when logged-in as ADMIN) When time permits, I should be able to commit these changes in the coming days. *** I'm not aware if the 'special encoding' you are referring to for the userdatabase.xml. Maybe others on the dev-list can help ? dirk On Thu, Aug 3, 2017 at 4:31 PM, Lance Bader <ldba...@museslabs.com> wrote: > Can anyone tell me how to provision a collection of new wiki users? > > In our corporate wiki, we do not allow self provisioning.
