That is what happened for Site.SideBar.
By "edit the file /wikilib.d/PmWiki/Installation", do you mean that you're editing the file directly? Or did you really mean to say you were editing the PmWiki.Installation page via ?action=edit ? Your understanding of how things are supposed to work is correct -- PmWiki doesn't write to files in the wikilib.d/ directory, but instead creates a new copy of the page in wiki.d/ (and uses that in preference to the wikilib.d/ page). So, if PmWiki is modifying the file in wikilib.d/ somehow, then yes there's something odd happening here. > When I delete the AuthUser lines and repeated the experiment, a file was > created in wiki.d as expected. > > Why would the behaviour be different? I don't know -- it shouldn't be any different. There must be something else going on here. I can set up a test on pmwiki.org if it would help.
