Why do I get the message "access denied" when my students have been given writer permission?
Why is access denied when students are given writer permission? The wiki works fine when I am signed in as an administrator. Only the front page works for my students. When they try going to another page they get a message "access denied." There is also a link to "see on all pages." When you click on that link, you can actually delete pages. Yikes!
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?Hi there,
This is usually caused by setting the Page Security to "Only let some people see or edit this page" instead of "Anyone on the wiki can see and edit this page."
As for the link to "All Pages," the "Delete" buttons may show up but they won't work for anyone who doesn't have at least "Editor" level permissions.
Thanks for testing PBwiki 2.0 Beta!

Inappropriate?I can't find Page Security, sorry! -
Inappropriate?Carolyn, are you using a V2.0 wiki? The V1.0 wikis do not have page security. -
Inappropriate?I have a tab asking me what I think of V2.0 wiki, so I suppose that's what I have!
Don't worry though, I think the problem is that my students are not native English speakers (but they do have an advanced level and they're by no means tech-ignorant). I got a friend (admittedly a computer guy) to guinea pig, and he had no problem.
Leave it with me, I think I just have to give them a little more help with it than I had anticipated.
Good luck with the surgery, and don't forget to check my band out on my space (www.myspace.com/electricshoesbcn)
