Inappropriate?I'm sorry I missed this. Can you tell me if your wiki is private or public?
-
Inappropriate?I think the system has changed - now when I change the folder security to custom, I get "folder doesn't exist"
I’m anxious
-
Inappropriate?its a private wiki
-
Inappropriate?I also have this problem.
Am setting security on a variety of folders in a private wiki.
All show in the list, ergo, all exist. All allow me to change them to Custom Security; but, when I save the new settings in many, I get a blank page that says, "folder doesn't exist" at the top.
Once the message said that I could not have periods in the page name; we do not have periods in the page names.
I’m hoping I will get an answer!

This sounds like a bug I would like to see for myself. Margaret, would you mind sending us an email at support[at]pbwiki[dot]com so we can take a look at this bug in detail? Thanks! -
I did write to you, Vu. I hope you rec'd it.
Getting the blank page that says, "folder doesn't exist" is now a much more serious issue because we can't release our wiki w/o the folder security working.
We actually purchased this wiki specifically for the security in the 2.0 version. Please let me know ASAP when this bug is fixed. I think we have moved beyond frustrated. -
Inappropriate?I am getting this problem also and I need to add someone with write access to one folder - just get the same error message 'folder does not exist'. Looks like a bug to me.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?We're still working on finding the root of this problem. Some fixes that have worked in various situations:
- Have another Admin try to change the security on a folder.
- Change the "http://yourwiki.pbwiki.com..." URL to "httpS://yourwiki.pbwiki.com..." and try changing the folder security again.
I can't tell you why either of these fixes work, but sometimes they do.
If you try both these things and still can't change the folder security, click the "Help" link on your wiki, scroll down, and choose "Contact support"
We'll be able to help you from there.
