Question

I want to know if it's possible to a topic only be edited by one user?and how can this be done! any help would be nice...it's a little urgent! thanks (e.g user JoaquimFerreira should only be hable to edit JoaquimFerreira topic)

Environment

Answer

Just add this to the topic:

      * Set ALLOWTOPICCHANGE = %MAINWEB%.WikiName

...with "WikiName" being the name of person who should have edit privileges. In the specific case you mention above of protecting a users home topic, you can simply put "ALLOWTOPICCHANGE = %TOPIC%".

• Notice that ALLOWTOPICCHANGE = %TOPIC% does not work in the current TWikiRelease02Sep2004, you need to set it to the topic name, e.g. ALLOWTOPICCHANGE = JoaquimFerreira -- PeterThoeny - 13 Aug 2005

For more information about TWiki control over topic privileges, see TWikiAccessControl.
