# Installation/Setup questions
I have just installed ikiwiki and it works - at least I have the example index.mdwn page
----
-# Documentation for banning users?
-
-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.)

-# 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.
