Hi,
I was trying to compare XWiki with some of the functionality of
MediaWiki.
One of my concerns about attchements is the security. For example,Do
the page access rights in XWiki, apply also to the attachements of
that page?
In mediawiki, there is special page called File list where one can
go and see the entire list of files uploaded to the wiki. But, if we
want to allow access restrictions to those, this should not be
allowed.
So, does XWiki take care of this issue? Not allowing restricted
users from viewing confodential attachemnts at all.
Attachments are linked to pages so if a user doesn't have the right to
view a page he won't be able to view its attachments.
Also, what is the syntax of XWiki and how is it
different from
Mediawiki if at all it is?
