Carolyn replied 8 days ago to the question "Why do I get the message "access denied" when my students have been given writer permission?" in PBwiki:
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)

A comment on the question "Wide-open writer permissions: can I do that? How?" in PBwiki:
The "Request Access" feature is just the first step in a larger plan to meet the needs of our users. We have other solutions that will be implemented as this develops that should meet the needs as described above. – Rachel Pennig, 13 days ago
A comment on the question "Wide-open writer permissions: can I do that? How?" in PBwiki:
That's nice, but if users have to *request* access, then that means someone has to *grant* access, and that's just as bad. I can't recall a single post here at GS where anyone let you know that this was a desired feature, so perhaps you're receiving those requests privately. – Guy Fawkes, 13 days ago

Hi Jill - completely understandable- you need to get work done! I just wanted to let you know we are working on it, so I hope you come back and try PBwiki in the future! – Rachel Pennig, 13 days ago

Jill -
what provider is that?
This is enough to make me move as well.
I expected to be able to have my community easily write in our wiki, once we gave them the name of the wiki. The fact that people can't easily edit without being given indivudal permission makes this wiki not useable for our purposes.
Nor can I find understandable help instructions as to what other options there are.

Thanks Ian, for your reply. In the meantime there's two more questions here for writing in a 2.0 wiki without an Account: #1 & #2. Remember the days that PBwiki told us to switch from the old board to GS for a better search function?
You better hurry @ fixing, otherwise 2.0 will go Bye Bye Hasta La Vista: nobody wants it or can use it and want to revert toXP1.0.

A couple of interesting work arounds here! Unfortunately as you've noted they are brittle solutions. (For example upcoming changes to some low-level plumbing will probably break Goliath's proposal.)
We really do understand the desire behind these solutions and we're working hard to create ones for PBwiki 2.0 which are robust, secure, and useable.
We love that our users are so determined and creative. Thanks for continually reminding us how important these log-in options are to the community.
While the official answer right now is "No" there's no supported way to do this in PBwiki 2.0, discussions like this one keep our feet to the fire.

I tried adding jiglu to http://macewan.pbwiki.com , but it doesn't seem to know how to index PBwiki pages very well. – Guy Fawkes, 15 days ago
