Text visible in editing

[anonymous]

In your example..

{{{
#!access
#allow(TICKET_ADMIN)

some text for ticket admins
}}}

user, having WIKI_EDIT cat press "Edit this page" for reading and modifying protected text, so this construction make sence only if #allow(WIKI_EDIT) specified.

You're right that it doesn't make much sense to try to hide parts of a wiki page from people who have permission to edit the page, so this macro will be useful when there are users without WIKI_EDIT permissions.

I don't understand your comment about the example you quoted. It seems to make sense for there to be parts of wiki pages only ticket admins can see.

Just starting to test this out, and so made a note about what you mention here on the wiki page.

It would be great if only the part that is shown to the user is editable. When comparing to mediawiki there it is possible to edit explicit chapters of the page. With introducing such a feature to your plugin you would therefore kill two birds with a stone. Perhaps you can also combine access logic with headings syntax e.g. something like:

{{{
#!access
#allow(TICKET_ADMIN)
=== heading3 ===
}}}

I found a worst case recently :(

In my wiki anonymous users have no WIKI_EDIT. But there is a link "Download in other formats: Plain Text", which makes content visible for everyone.

I'm searching for plugin, which makes a sort of "public pages", accessible by WIKI_VIEW and rest - by some special permission, with ability to select public pages on Administration page and without extra mainnav locations.

Yeah, that looks like a problem. I haven't had time to figure out if it's possible to fix the other reported bug (relating to history) without a patch.

Thanks for the info.

SectionEditPlugin implements that feature, but in a very messy way. Section editing really needs to be implemented in the Trac core. There is a proposal (​t:TracDev/Proposals/AdvancedWikiOperations) and ticket (​t:#1024) for this feature.

This is also described in #5554, therefore I'm going to close this ticket. The limitations of the plugin have been captured on the project wiki page.

If you want to restrict access to certain pages, you can use ​t:TracFineGrainedPermissions. For an editor, you can use the FineGrainedPageAuthzEditorPlugin, which will be integrated into the AccountManagerPlugin eventually.
