David E. Weekly replied on June 21, 2008 19:46 to the question "Files Security" in PBwiki:
So here's an update - work on this feature has begun in earnest. We've got a first draft design of the production done - the UI is going to help unify several currently-disparate interfaces, adding both file-level security and files in folders. (AllPages, changes.php, FindPage, tags.php, upload.php, and the Folder pages currently present themselves differently, which can be befuddling to new users.) The engineering backend work for both files in folders and file-level security has already been completed; this work was prioritized as a direct result of this thread on GSFN.
We're also going to be working on making our roadmap and ongoing development more transparent without interfering with our core mission of actually improving the product as fast as possible. :)
And thanks for continuing to speak your mind candidly; these kinds of conversations are what help us move both the company and the product forward.

I think that something like this could help:

It's been my experience that increased engineering transparency helps with satisfaction.

I didn't ask for your "sorry" - I merely explained it's frustrating not to get any update. I'm sure you all are doing your best getting things developed but I don't see how that has anything to do with communication. Isn't this site supposed to be about communication?
So, no, I don't understand why careful implementation and good communication are mutually exclusive.

I'm sorry you feel that way sraymond, but our engineers are doing their best to prioritize between bug fixes and new features. File security will have to be implemented carefully and tested thoroughly, as it will have to match up with our general dedication to security. Hope you understand. – Vu Nguyen, on June 21, 2008 03:36

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.

Hi Margaret - can you email support(at)pbwiki(dot)com with your wiki name? Thanks! – Rachel Pennig, on June 12, 2008 15:09

I also have this problem but haven't gotten an answer on another thread.
When we purchased the wiki we were told that file security existed, not that it was in the pipeline. I can change my folders in Custom Security; but, when I save the new settings, I get a blank page that says, "folder doesn't exist" at the top. We do not have periods in the page names.
Please let me know ASAP when this bug is fixed.

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. – margaret, on June 12, 2008 14:57

Dear Vu,
I believe I've solved the problem. 2.0 changes styles. If the header tag carries a style, <h2>, it does not show in the TOC.
If I change that to a span: <h2><span>Header Title</span></h2>, then it shows in the TOC.
Rather than look for changed headers, I would suggest everyone look for added header styles.

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! – Vu Nguyen, on May 30, 2008 02:57

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've seen something like this before and filed bug ticket #917 a while back. It was apparently a problem with mis-formed headers, but we could never figure out why they became messed up in the first place.
This sounds like a possible lead, so could you email me at vu[dot]nguyen[at]pbwiki[dot]com ? THANKS!
