Question

  1. how do you unregister (or remove) the users ?
  2. when I define twiki pages for internal use, I don't want references to twiki.org (so users are not diverted). how can I achieve this ?
  3. I am getting "Welcome Guest" message, even for non-guest user with .htpasswd authentication. I am not even sure if this authentication works for me. thanks for any suggestions. -SamRajagopal

Answer

Addressing your questions:

  1. To remove a user
    • Delete their User topic.
    • Edit TWikiUsers and edit out their name.
    • (Optional) edit manually /data/.htpasswd to remove their name & password.
  2. I'm not sure what talking about here. Do you mean the link associated with the logo in top-left corner? You can change that by editing the WIKILOGOURL variable in TWikiPreferences. I just did a quick search of my site and don't think you should have more than 1 or 2 links to TWiki.org unless something is off in your configuration.
  3. The WelcomeGuest on the Main.WebHome page is just a link to a general help page and doesn't have anything to do with whether you're logged in or not. If you don't want it, you can simply edit that page and remove it.
    • This is probably because the view script is not authentciated and users are not session tracked. See details in TWikiUserAuthentication.

If you just play around with TWiki abit, a lot of these kind of things should become clear.
