Thread:Project:Support desk/Group permissions have no effect

Hi,

I've been trying to setup a MediaWiki for a company I work for and I'm almost there. I created a group "Viewer" and that's how I setup its permissions:

$wgGroupPermissions['Viewer'] = $wgGroupPermissions['user']; $wgGroupPermissions['Viewer']['edit']         = false; $wgGroupPermissions['Viewer']["createpage"]    = false; $wgGroupPermissions['Viewer']["minoredit"]    = false; $wgGroupPermissions['Viewer']["movefile"]    = false; $wgGroupPermissions['Viewer']["move"]    = false; $wgGroupPermissions['Viewer']["move-subpages"]    = false; $wgGroupPermissions['Viewer']["move-rootuserpages"]    = false; $wgGroupPermissions['Viewer']["reupload-shared"]    = false; $wgGroupPermissions['Viewer']["reupload"]    = false; $wgGroupPermissions['Viewer']["purge"]    = false; $wgGroupPermissions['Viewer']["upload"] = false; $wgGroupPermissions['Viewer']["writeapi"]    = false;

However I registered a test user, assigned a group and I can still view Special Pages, upload files page etc. Is there anything else that needs to be done?
