Hi!

The last version of CategoryPermissions is years old; it might just not work correctly with current versions of MediaWiki anymore.

You basically can try to prevent people from accessing or editing certain pages. However, you have a fundamental problem here: MediaWiki is not made for access control.

See Extension:CategoryPermissions, Security_issues_with_authorization_extensions or Preventing_access. What you want better can be achieved with a CMS like Drupal or TYPO3.

Sorry that I can't tell you anything more helpful.
