	+	====== Disable Actions by Group ======

	+	This plugin allows you to disable a given list of actions based on user groups. It has been tested to work with the latest release of DokuWiki (2006-11-06). There are two configuration settings:
	+
	+	* group_list: List of groups (separated by `;`)
	+	* action_list: List of disabled actions for those groups (actions separated by `,`, groups separated by `;`). Please look in the config section for an example.
	+
	+
	+	===== Download/Install =====
	+
	+	To install the plugin either use the plugin manager or extract this zip file into your plugins directory:
	+
	+	* [[http://dev.webacoustics.com/dokuwiki/disableactionsbygroup-20071212.zip]] - Implements [[jas@cse.yorku.ca\|Jason Keltz]]'s modifications (see Discussion dated 2007-09-25)
	+	* [[http://dev.webacoustics.com/dokuwiki/disableactionsbygroup-20070221.zip]] - Implements [[georg@gulbsoft.de\|Georg Zoeller]]'s modifications to include the ALL group, and the option of discluding ADMIN from the plugin actions. I've added a new configuration value called 'ignore_admin' that controls this.
	+	* OLD: [[http://dev.webacoustics.com/dokuwiki/disableactionsbygroup-20061229.zip]]
	+
	+
	+
	+
	+	===== Example =====

	+	{{http://images.gulbsoft.de/disableactionsbygroup.png}} \\
	+	FIXME updated screenshot with new ignore_admin setting
	+	In this example (note: uses the patch to allow restricting ALL published below), the following groups have been prohibited the following actions:
	+	* ALL (anonymous) : 'revisions', 'diff', 'recent'
	+	* user (normal user): 'diff', 'revisions'
	+	* friends (custom groups): "revisions' //--Georg Zoeller//
	+
	+	===== List of valid actions =====
	+
	+	By default, these actions come with dokuwiki. More can be added through the use of plugins:
	+
	+	* 'login'
	+	* 'logout'
	+	* 'register'
	+	* 'save'
	+	* 'cancel'
	+	* 'edit'
	+	* 'draft',
	+	* 'preview'
	+	* 'search'
	+	* 'show'
	+	* 'check' (check installation requirements)
	+	* 'index'
	+	* 'revisions' (old revisions)
	+	* 'diff' (diff)
	+	* 'recent' (recent changes)
	+	* 'backlink' (show backlink)
	+	* 'admin'
	+	* 'subscribe'
	+	* 'unsubscribe'
	+	* 'profile'
	+	* 'resendpwd'
	+	* 'recover'

	+	Little patch to allow removing rights from the ALL (anonymous users) group as well as making ADMIN ignore the plugin (needed if you want to restrict a right from 'user' or other groups but still allow admin to perform it.

	+	FIXME When disabling an action in admin interface in a common way, the corresponding button disappears from the page. It's not the case with this plugin. Isn't it better to do the same thing rather than allow guests hitting buttons that don't do anything? Best regards!

	+	--- //[[kirma@cs.hut.fi\|Jari Kirma]] 2007-09-25 09:22//
	+
	+	I had a couple of issues with the plugin as it exists from source on this page.
	+
	+	- The last modification re: the ALL group is a bit problematic because the definition of ALL (anyonymous users) from Georg's patch doesn't agree with the DokuWiki definition of ALL which includes ALL users, both logged in, and not logged in.
	+	- I am not sure that I agree with the implementation of the ignore_admin option since I can't think of any reason why the admin of the site should ever be denied access to anything. At least that's the way DokuWiki ACLs work. The admin always has access to everything.
	+	- In my opinion, if you have a user X who is in groups A and B, and the admin has disabled action Z for group A, then user X should not be disallowed access to action Z because user X is in group B where no actions have been disabled. As far as I can tell this is not the way the current plugin works. Currently, user X would be denied because he is in group A.
	+
	+	I have created the patch below which does the following:
	+
	+	- fix the definition of ALL (users are ALWAYS in the ALL group)
	+	- get rid of ignore_admin
	+	- fix group checking as per 3 above (note: if you remove access to ALL for say, "revisions", and you really wish to remove access to "revisions" for all of your users, then you are going to need to add another restriction for your users group because omitting this restriction would then provide your users with access to "revisions".)
	+
	+	Finally, while I agree that it would be nice if this plugin disabled the actions from being displayed through templates, I'm not overly fond of the idea of modifying the actual DokuWiki code to fix the problem because these types of patches need to be reapplied to every DokuWiki version. On the other hand, if this plugin implemented a check function that a template could call when printing the buttons (kind of like actionOK), this might not be a bad idea because the templates don't always change with DokuWiki versions. However, this would tie the template to this plugin...
	+
	+	> Regarding the above actionOK replacement: everything works correctly without it, except when user logs out, the page loaded after logout is constructed with privileges of user that logged out (the actions represented by extra buttons don't work, though). So, it's really rather cosmetic change, but it's good to note that current standard implementation caches $disabled after first invocation of actionOK in a way that can be detrimental.

	+	====== Group Start Pages ======
	+
	+	This plugin allows you to specify a start page based on user group. It has been tested to work with the latest release of DokuWiki (2006-11-06). There are three configuration settings:
	+
	+	* group_list: List of groups (separated by `;`)
	+	* start_page_list: List of start pages for respective groups (separated by `;`). These should be absolute links (ex: namespace:page)
	+	* go_home_on_permission_error: List of groups to redirect home when a permissions error occurs or the page does not exist.
	+
	+	===== Download/Install =====
