Contents

[edit] Usage

[edit] Version 1.2 and above

Put that line as is at the VERY END of your LocalSettings.php file, any changes to the $wgGroupPermissions array may or may not be included in the special page if it is not toward the end of the file.

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

To edit those settings the user MUST be a bureaucrat, anything else will only get read permissions.

To access the page, goto special:micp:GroupPermissions

[edit] Version 1.1 and below

Put those two lines as is at the VERY END of your LocalSettings.php file, this will allow GroupPermissions.php to read/write its changes to settings.php, any changes to the $wgGroupPermissions array may or may not be included in the special page.

require_once( "$IP/extensions/GroupPermissions/settings.php");
require_once( "$IP/extensions/GroupPermissions/GroupPermissions.php" );

To edit those settings the user MUST be a bureaucrat, anything else will only get read permissions.

To access the page, goto special:GroupPermissions
