WikiAdmin - for a general description of the role of admins
Admin powers
An admin has super-rights, that means he can do the following things to
all pages :
- read, edit, delete and clone (even if the acls are set otherwise!)
- comment - the only exception is the {{no-comment}} on a page which prevents the comments-form from being shown. Note that it could be removed by an admin, who has then the possibility to comment.
- delete all comments
- set the acls
- transfer page ownership to a new user
- upload files
- options to manage referrers (needs more explanation)
Note that the admin which you have assigned during the installation has some extended privileges over the other admins:
- his e-mail adress is used from the feedback action. It is therefore necessary to enter a valid e-mail adress because otherwise all feedback send through the action is lost.
- (generally) he has FTP access to the site and access to the database and is therefore the only one who could see the e-mail adress of the registered users,
Assigning new Admins
Every wiki has at least one admin - the one you create during installation. If you want to add (or remove) admins, simply edit the
wikka.config.php.
There you will find the following entry:
admin_users => 'YourName',
To add (a) name(s), simply seperate them by a comma:
admin_users => 'YourName, AnotherUser, CoolJoeAdmin',
