Topic on Project:Support desk

How do I set up my wiki so that it requires login for people to view it? We are using it for our engineers and will be posting private customer information that we do not want people outside of organization to have access to. We want each of our engineers to have their own login.

Thanx.

Hi,

to disable read access for anonymous users you must set this in LocalSettings.php:

# Disable reading by anonymous users
$wgGroupPermissions['*']['read'] = false;

For more details see Manual:Preventing access.

This causes a redirect from the CreateAccount page to the Login page and the navigation menu is still visible.
