-# wiki\_file\_regexp and RCS ,v files
+# Access Keys

 
 

-I have RCS ,v files in my source directory. But get many "skipping bad filename" warnings.
+Would anyone else find this a valuable addition.  In oddmuse and instiki (the only other
+wiki engines I am currently using, the edit, home, and submit link tags have an
+accesskey attribute.  I find it nice not to have to resort to the mouse for those
+actions.  However, it may not be something everyone appreciates.  Any thoughts?
+--[Mazirian](http://mazirian.com)

 
 

-Also I don't see wiki\_file\_regexp documented. Because it is used with $config{wiki\_file\_regexp} I assume it can be set in the ikiwiki.setup.
-I added a comma to it in my IkiWiki.pm in the defaultconfig(). But that was wrong (so I reverted back), because then the ,v files were copied to my www tree.
+> Maybe, although it would need to take the critisism at
+> http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/forms/accesskey.html into account.

 
 

-What is the correct way to include ,v RCS revision files in my source tree without receiving the "bad" messages and without copying over to www tree?

+# Editing the style sheet.
+
+It would be nice to be able to edit the stylesheet by means of the cgi.  Or is this possible?  I wasn't able to achieve it.
+Ok, that's my last 2 cents for a while. --[Mazirian](http://mazirian.com)

+# Disable build/install requirement on PerlMagick
+
+Some installs of PerlMagick require X11. I tried to first disable using "img" by using "--disable-plugin img"
+in the Makefile. But still failed. My workaround was to remove "img" from the bundle in IkiWiki/Plugin/goodstuff.pm
+before building. What is the recommended way to install ikiwiki without "img" support? --[[JeremyReed]]

+# Documentation for banning users?

 
 

-> Add the ,v to the $config{wiki_file_prune_regexps} array. This is how we
-> skip equivilant files from other revision control systems too.
-> --[[Joey]]]
+The [[todo]] page says admins can ban users. Where is this documented? I search the source and found 
+set\_banned\_users() which led me to the CGI "preferences" form for the admin. Now logged in as an admin (as defined in my setup configuration),
+I see the field for this. But no details on how to use it. From the source it appears to be a space-delimited list of usernames. (I didn't test yet.)
+
+Can you please provide a [[/banned_users]] documentation about "banning" users function linked from the [[Features]] page and maybe [[security]] page and linked from the "preferences" for the admin?
+(I don't do this myself as I am unsure about this and still reading the code about banning users.)

-# Textile Plugin
+# Documentation for locking pages?
+
+The [[features]] page, the [[todo]] page and the [[usage]] manual page say pages can be locked and only the admin can edit locked pages.
+Where is locking pages documented? ... A moment later, from searching source I found this is configured via the preferences for the admin
+and that links to [[pagespec]].
+
+Can you please provide a [[/page_locking]] doc about locking pages linked from the [[features]] page and elsewhere? And have that link to [[pagespec]]?
+(I don't do this myself as I am unsure about this and still reading the code about locking pages.)

+# RecentChanges should show path to wiki sub-pages?
+
+The RecentChanges only shows the final file name for the recently changes file,
+for example "discussion". It would be more useful to see "index/discussion"
+or the path to the sub-page. I think this is handled by the htmllink() routine.

-It was trivial, but I put together a plugin that uses the Textile markup
-language, which I find to be the most superior of the various options for
-that sort of thing.  Where or how do I submit it for inclusion?

+This might be a bug, but will discuss it here first.
+Clicking on an old "?" or going to a create link but new Markdown content exists, should not go into "create" mode, but should do a regular "edit".
