Problem

Because include=* allows everything I can display secret sites!

I need help urgently.

Otherwise the it-department will cancel the use of the dpl-extension. That would be a really pitty.

What do you mean by "secret" ?

I think there once there was a similar request for "protected pages" ..

Anyway, if you can clearly specify the problem I will be able to tell you if there is a way to solve it.

"secret" means pages with limited access or "protected pages". When you call them there will be an answer like "you don´t have any permission to read this article, keep away". Probably dpl allows to determine restrictions for some usergroups, I hope so. Or mediawiki system options offer some regulations in order to maintain restricted areas - I have no idea about that. --Hannds 0920 20:17, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
