Listing of all encrypted articles
Q: Is there a possibility to list all encrypted articles?

Per user/group read only pages
Q: Is it possible to specify the users/groups who can edit a page and the users/groups who can read it? If so, how can it b done?

A: This extenstion provides access restrictions that are concerned about content protection in general (read/write/edit) using cryptography. To get want you want (allow view and disallow edit for example) you have to use different extension (or combine it with it).

Compatibility
Q: Does it work with MediaWiki 1.9.3 ?

A: Looks like it does, just upgraded about an hour or so ago and things are ok so far.

Q: What about MediaWiki 1.10.0?

A: Looks like is works.

Read access works, edit doesn't
Q: I have the following section on my wiki page:  Database-Settings asdf secret and this line in LocalSettings.php: $wgGroupPermissions['projectadmin']['edit'] = true; and a user in the groups projectadmin and Bureaucrats via Special:Userrights.

The user can see the protected part of the page, other users not in the right group get the error page.

But: my user in projectadmin group can not edit the page with the protected section in it. Error is 

PPP is 2.1b (Special Pages) and 2.0b (Parser Hooks), reported like this by Special:Version; MediaWiki is 1.9.1

What can I do? --149.226.255.200 14:03, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

compare versions does not work
MediaWiki 1.9.2 with diff3

Compare versions does not work, diff3 compares the encrypted pages, but it should compare decrypted pages!

/edit: makes no difference if diff3 is used or internal diff
