[edit] Purpose

Enforces the "edit_talk" right.

[edit] Usage Example

Users (i.e. members of the 'user' group) can be limited in their right to edit only the talk pages. In LocalSettings.php:

$wgGroupPermissions['*'    ]['edit']      = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['edit']      = false;
$wgGroupPermissions['user' ]['edit_talk'] = true;

[edit] Dependency

None.



[edit] Installation

See the Mediawiki Extension table entry "download" above.[1]

[edit] LocalSettings.php

Extension:ExtensionManager: See footnote[2]

require_once( "$IP/extensions/EditTalkRight/EditTalkRight.php" );

[edit] PEAR

PEAR is a repository of software code.

pear channel-discover mediawiki.googlecode.com/svn
  • Install extension through PEAR:
pear install mediawiki/EditTalkRight
  • Add the following to LocalSettings.php[2][3]:
require 'MediaWiki/EditTalkRight/EditTalkRight.php';

pear clear-cache

or use the force method:

pear upgrade --force mediawiki/EditTalkRight

[edit] Notes

  1. ↑ The most recent release is always available through the extension's PEAR and SVN repositories. This page is not necessarily up-to-date.
  2. ↑ 2.0 2.1 2.2 Extension:ExtensionManager does not require any modification to LocalSettings.php because ExtensionManager includes the extension.
    Note that if PHP code caching is in place (e.g. APC, eAccelerator), then to successfully complete the installation a cache flush might be needed.
  3. ↑ Modifications to LocalSettings.php is only necessary if not using Extension:ExtensionManager
