Setting user rights

XWiki Enterprise lets you set user rights at the wiki, space and page level. This means that you can control exactly which users are allowed to perform which actions (edit, view or comment on a page):

• Click on the "Administration" link at the top right of your page
• Click on the "Rights" button

Here are a couple usual wiki rights configurations. Check the same checkboxes in your wiki as in the images below to have your wiki follow that given configuration.

• Registration: who should be allowed to create new accounts?
  • Open: unregistered users can create an account
  • Closed: only registered users can create new accounts
  • Locked: only admins can create new accounts
• View & edition: who should be allowed to view and edit pages?
  • Editable: unregistered users can edit content
  • Viewable: unregistered users can view and comment content and registered users can edit content
  • Hidden: unregistered users cannot view content, registered users can view and edit content

For all the configurations listed below, leave the Users rights screen blank:
