If multiple users will login with the same id and password (which was created for a student without e-mail) and will edit the same page at the same time then edits will be saved only for the first one who logged to the wiki. The problem is the system didn't notify other users that the page is editing like before - giving notification "other user is editing, do you want to steal the lock?" Is there any settings for administrator to setup that kind of notification?

I will definitely consider using classroom accounts in future. And generally I like how pbWiki moves to more flexible and more controllable setup. It is just that I need move slowly in educating people how to use our sign-up lists. You wouldn't believe how many times parents said they couldn't figure how things work even though they do use e-mail and text editors. Takes time to make them comfortable to use new things...

We are using pbWiki to set up sign-up lists for parents to volunteer at our school. The single password system works very nice since I don't have to approve access for more than nine hundred parents. And it was quite a bit time to get parents to use pbWiki. If I now require them to create pbWiki Account a lot of them will just stop using. One of incentives how easy to use pbWiki was that it require them to remember just a password and they do not have to share their e-mail address.

So if I create one generic pbWiki Account can all my users use that account to get access to my pbWiki at the same time?

I think that one of the best solutions is to have invite key with a name. A teacher will give out invite key then a student can login using his first name + teacher name

there is a way to get around it by entering your text into the table. Then you can limit width of that table to either pixels size or percentage of the screen. Works nice! And if you don't like that you see border around your text there is some code-snip which you add to wiki-page source and then you will have no borders visible
