NAME

Kwiki::Edit::RequireUserName - Replaces Kwiki::Edit in order to require a user name to edit

SYNOPSIS

This plugin helps reduce WikiSpam by requiring that the user have a user name before editing. The idea is that SpamBots won't take the trouble to do this. Of course this won't prevent spam created manually.

REQUIRES

Kwiki 0.33 (tested against this version)
Kwiki::Edit (comes standard with Kwiki)
Kwiki::UserName (adds user name functionality to Kwiki)
Kwiki::UserPreferences (adds the ability to change user names)

INSTALLATION

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

cd ~/where/your/kwiki/is/located
vi plugins

Replace

Kwiki::Edit

with

Kwiki::Edit::RequireUserName

If you don't already have them add the following also

Kwiki::UserName
Kwiki::UserPreferences

Then run

kwiki -update
