Using the extension
To manage group permissions, you need the following:
- your MediaWiki user account needs to be in a MediaWiki group that has been granted the right to use Group Permissions Manager, e.g. bureaucrat as depicted above;
- you must be logged in with that MediaWiki account;
- you need to know the name of the group whose permissions you want to manage (or create or delete).
In the left navigation area, click on Special pages; scroll down to the section Restricted special pages, you should see an entry Manage Group Permissions. Click it to enter the Manage Group Permissions special page. Here, you'll find just an empty box and a "Go" button. Fill in the name of the group you want to create/manage/delete, and click "Go".
You'll find yourself in a long page with group permissions, each of which can be "true", "false" or "inherit". Setting a permission to "true" or "false" enables or disables the permission for this group, while leaving it on "inherit" means the group gets the default permission that MediaWiki assigns every group - just think of the default rights of the default group "users"
Furthermore:
- If the group pre-exists, you'll find above the list a comment box and a "Delete group" button, where you can remove the group, while leaving the comment in the GroupPermissionsLog.log log file.
- Furthermore, if the group pre-exists, the permissions list ends with a comment box and a "Change group permissions" button. Clicking that button will change the group permissions to the set designated in the permissions list. The changes, along with all other group permissions, can be found in the /etc/mediawiki/config directory in file GroupPermissons.php. Clicking the button will also have resulted in a backup of the GroupPermissons.php file in that same directory, but named GroupPermissons.<timestamp>.php, e.g. GroupPermissions.21012009171713.php.
- If the group name is "new", no "Delete group" button is shown, but the permissions list ends with a comment box and an "Add group" button, which will create the group with the designated name, while leaving the comment in the GroupPermissionsLog.log log file. Again, the comment is logged, and a backup of the GroupPermissons.php file is made.
