[pmwiki-users] edit passwd?

2012-05-18 Thread jdd

Hello :-)

I have this in my config.php:

$DefaultPasswords['admin'] = crypt('x');
$DefaultPasswords['edit'] = crypt('');

I can edit a given page with the admlin passwd, but not with the edit pass

what is wrong?

(I could solve the problem changing the passwd online for this page, 
but need to understand


thanks

hi jdd

can you tell me the page’s attributes? (just add ?action=attr to the url and 
you will get the attributes)

Well, don't worry anymore.

It's just a special feature of the skin I missed, I just see a help 
page explaining this (pages of the site group are edit protected)

[pmwiki-users] Link Color

My links are not sufficiently highlighted. Is there some way I can make 
them darker or stand out more in some other way?

Open or create a file pmwiki/pub/css/local.css and append to the end something 
like this:

  /* Link colors in the main content area */
  #wikitext a { color: #ff; text-decoration: underline; }
  #wikitext a:visited { color: #aa; }

You can find the codes of all colors (starting with # followed by numbers and 
letters) at this page: http://www.colorpicker.com/ . Some color names in 
English should work too: blue, red, green, indigo.

To change the appearance of other links, for example in the sidebar, header or 
footer, add similar lines starting with #wikileft, #wikilogo, #wikifoot for 
the default PmWiki skin, or #head, #foot, #sidebar, #left, #right, #tabs or 
something else for some other skins, eg.:

  /* Link colors in the sidebar (pmwiki skin) */
  #wikileft a { color: blue; text-decoration: underline; }
  #wikitext a:visited { color: navy; }

After this operation you need to refresh the page in your browser.

For specific skins, ask on the cookbook talk page for the skin.

Re: [pmwiki-users] Wiki page fails to render when non-ASCII characters are included

 I copied a 4 year old PmWiki farm to a new machine. Pages that contain
 special characters (non-ASCII), like umlaut 'u', cause a page not to

 editor, the page, which is in wiki.d, and has content, again renders.

Thanks for the detailed report of your installation, unfortunately I see no 
obvious problem there. 

There are some changes to the PageStore class since version 2.2.31: there is a 
function that converts between different character encodings. I've recently 
fixed a similar issue with blank pages.

However for your installation which had the default ISO-8859-1 encoding, 
nothing have changed, the recoding function is not used.

Have you any problems with some other pages from the default installation, for 
example blank pages in the PmWiki/ or Site/ groups? These pages come with the 
UTF-8 encoding and are converted to yours on the fly.

If you add the following line to config.php, do you still have blank pages?

  $PageRecodeFunction = 'IsEnabled';

(This line will completely bypass the PageStore-recode function.)

Can you test some previous PmWiki versions 2.2.30 to 2.2.35 on the same server 
and report?

Re: [pmwiki-users] Solved: How do you creating one, wiki-wide, Upload Directory on Local Site, not remote site?

2012-05-18 Thread Al Louis Ripskis
Many thanks to Josh, Gilles, Tamouse and JDD for helping me resolve this 
conundrum.
Since PmWiki architecture apparently doesn't permit to automate this process, 
here is how I'm dealing with it:
I manually (via FileZilla) transfer all the files From the PmWiki-wide uploads 
directory to my local C:\public_html\UnTestedUploads directory, where I can use 
my AVG anti-virus program to check out and delete the infected files, then 
process the uninfected files as necessary.
It would be nice to be able to do this automatically, but c'est la vie!
Thanks to all,
Al

Directory on Local Site, not remote site?

Dear Al,

obviously this can’t work. your remote config.php will only affect the remote 
settings and therefore only manipulate the remote file system.  to achieve 
what you want to do, you will…

1) …either have to mirror the site using something like rsync’ing with the 
help of a cron job (and have all the problems discussed in an earlier desktop 
virus scan software thread in this list, which you will probably find in the 
mailing list archives)

2) …or write some script that does what you need it to do (basically find a 
way to interface the local and the remote sites).


assuming your primary goal is not to move pages from one pmwiki instance to 
another and have them cross-reference/load their pages, but rather have a way 
to scan your uploaded files for malware/viruses/etc, you should probably do 
one of those things:

a) if you need to run the scan from your workstation, rather than running it 
on the server itself, the easiest way would be to mount the server directory 
as a smb share on your local machine (if your remote and local sites are not 
on the same network, you will probably have to use a vpn tunnel for that). to 
explain how to do that is kind of out of the scope of this mailing list, as it 
is not a PmWiki specific question, but more of a general server 
administration/setup task.

b) you could consider installing a virus scanner (e. g. clamav-server) on your 
remote site’s server and have it watch your uploads folder and subdirs. this 
would definitely be a better solution, but users still won’t get feedback why 
their file has suddenly disappeared. disappearing files is still better than 
serving malware. and if you have to much spare time on your hand you could 
even come up with a solution how to have clamav-server tell pmwiki which files 
had to be removed.

c) you could come up with a new way for pmwiki to upload files (e. g. write a 
new uploader) which automatically triggers your server’s antivirus software 
and only successfully moves the file into place after it has been cleared by 
the av software.


again, this topic is not really related to PmWiki in the first place, since 
it’s a problem basically every content management system has. you might have 
better luck searching the web for a more general solution to this problem, or 
maybe ask this question in a more generalized way on stackoverflow.

 Can you clarify what your local and remote sites actually are?
 The remote site is my politicaltransformation.org PmWiki and that's the

 Now my local site is the computer I'm operating from that has Windows XP

Hi, Al,

This can be automated, but it's not exactly a one or two-line script.
I think others and myself discussed this a bit in your last thread
about virus checking. If you aren't up for writing it yourself,
perhaps you might engage the services of someone who can do it for
you.

You could setup a batch job on your windows machine to periodically copy 
your remote uploads directory to your PC. Setup your virus checker to 
make sure it scans all new files, and auto-deletes/moves infected files. 
Then the job can simply copy the remaining files back over to the remote 
uploads directory, removing the existing files.


You could probably automate all this with a backup tool. I'm familiar 
with SyncBack, and it seems to me that could be setup to perform the 
copy/sync process, and the virus scanner will process all new files for 
you. There are no doubt other ways of doing this.
