Quite unrelated to other recent discussions on this site, I have done a bit more work on the brig. Here are the main points: | |

Are there any other volunteers? Now that I'm done with clearing ice & snow from deck, good to go to the brig. Maybe I'll find another flask in the corner... Maybe I'll still be there when the next snow falls and not have to deal with it! ____________ ![]() Click and enter your name for your BOINC Statistics | |

Yep, got an e-mail and didn't have to log out to be locked up. As a seaman in the brig I could not edit pages, only add to or edit annotation. ____________ ![]() Click and enter your name for your BOINC Statistics | |

I'm not done testing what I was testing, so Eric, could you put me back in the brig for another 10 hours? With thanks. :) | |

I've made some further changes to the wiki which I'd like to test. | |

Anytimes when I enter the Glossary while being on Pirates' site before (from the same IE instance), I'm automatically logged in. | |

Check the wiki right before suspension is to expire. Then check it again afterwards, and I predict you are in the brig for another hour. 15:43 - 16:44 I can post here... I'm still in the brig in the Wiki. But I am not the only one, it seems: 1. Ageless (brig) 2. Fuzzy Hollynoodles (brig) 3. KSMarksPsych (brig) 4. Misfit (brig) I do expect to be out again in an hour's time, as that happened to me last time around. I'll check the Wiki every 10 minutes for the next hour. ____________ Jord.

I'm out of the brig in the Wiki. Time stamp 17:20 | |

Ageless wrote: I'm out of the brig in the Wiki. Time stamp 17:20 Probably not. If you checked on the wiki while you were in the brig at 24min after you were put in, then it set the recheck time to an hour later. Allow me to put you in the brig again, but don't go check it until a few minutes before the expiration. That should reset the check interval to 1hr later, and you won't be reset on the wiki until almost an hour after the expiration. ____________ -- Eric Myers "Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." -- William Butler Yeats | |

check or uncheck? I have it checked, I uncheck it, go somewhere else and come back to preferences, and it's checked again. Ugh. I suspect a wiki bug. I also found where user permissions are determined. In addition to your explicit permission groups (seaman, able_seaman, chief, etc..) there are implicit groups for anonymous user, logged in users, users with email confirmed (and others?). Unfortunately, these are all just merged into one array and then permissions applied. I would rather that the implicit permissions be applied first, then the explicit permissions, to override. I may have to work up a patch for this. We are using MediaWiki 1.8.2, but 1.9 is out, so we should likely try that first before claiming to have found bugs. And I'd like to verify that the BOINC authentication plug-in works with 1.9. ____________ -- Eric Myers "Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." -- William Butler Yeats | |

Hum, I meant uncheck. Sorry, blame it on wet fingers on the keyboard. | |

KSMarksPsych wrote: Just curious. Always a good thing! It says in the Wiki that if a crew member is in the brig, they can't read the Wiki (from here). The day I was in, I could read. I couldn't start a page (still can't as my RAC is too low) or edit a page. But I could participate in the talk page. Good eye, thanks for the report. What that page claims and how it really works may be two different things. I've been changing some of the permissions to see how they are applied. I had hoped that our explicit permission group settings would be applied after the default settings, but it seems that this is not the case. I've also found that I now need to explicitly grant 'talk' permission if I turn it off for anonymous users, or just authenticated users. So I've just done that. We'll see if that gets us closer to what that page claims. ____________ -- Eric Myers "Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." -- William Butler Yeats | |

My RAC just (or possibly few days ago already) got to 0.01. According to [[Configuring user permissions]] page, which claims: seaman I'm not a seaman anymore. :-( [[Special:Listusers|User list]] page confirmed it - I'm just a chief: chief But, I'm still able to edit pages. See BBCode Tags' history. ____________ Peter .-) ![]() | |

Pepo wrote: But, I'm still able to edit pages. That is as expected. I've explicitly allowed Chief's to retain some permissions even with no RAC. Of course we could change that if necessary. I've moved the permission settings to a separate file, PiratePermissions.php, in case you want to see how its done. Keep in mind that this is just a copy; the version in use might be changed as we go along. ____________ -- Eric Myers "Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." -- William Butler Yeats | |

Yes, I understand. // A 'seaman' is a registered member who has 0 < RAC < RAC_TO_EDIT This is currently different, isn't it? // Anyone who misbehaves can be "put into the brig" by banning on I did not know that 'brigging' is also possible in Wiki - is there any interface for this? ____________ Peter .-) ![]() | |

Slightly different. You must have at credit of 0.01 (one cobblecent?) to become a seaman. The file PiratesPermissions.php just lists the permissions given to the different groups, but says nothing about how you get into a group. That is done in BOINCAuthPlugin.php, which you can read about under [[BOINC Authentication]] // Anyone who misbehaves can be "put into the brig" by banning on Yes, but you won't see it as a chief. There is a special page for user permission groups where I can manually move you to another group. It's available to officers, and on a wiki there is a group called SysOp which has just about all permissions, and Bureaucrat which can do many administrative things, including changing people's groups (but that of course can be adjusted). But with the automatic settings I suspect that if I manually move you to the brig on the wiki then you will be removed within an hour because you are not banned on the BOINC part. I'd probably have to come up with a separate group for blocking use of just the wiki. And a name for it. ____________ -- Eric Myers "Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." -- William Butler Yeats | |
