00384: Fill http_user into author field
Description: If PmWiki is protected via LDAP / htaccess, the value from http_user should be filled into the "author" field. $AllowOverideAuthor in config file should specify wether the "author" field is display only.
This is already available as a local customization in local/config.php:
if (@$_SERVER['REMOTE_USER']) $Author
= $_SERVER['REMOTE_USER'];
If this is set, then the LDAP / .htaccess value will take precedence over anything an author might put in the Author: box (making $AllowOverrideAuthor somewhat unnecessary).
Let me know if this does approximately what you want so I can close this issue.
--Pm
fantastic. Please close this issue. Thanks, Uli
24.03. well one more thing: it works great, but the Recent Changes page displays only "?" now instead of the author name. Uli
Hmm, that's odd. Recent changes should still get the profiles link -- I'll have to check into this one a bit. --Pm Any update here? I still couldn't figure out what's happening. With some users it works, others still appear as "?" in the RecentChanges. In the Page History no problem. -Uli
