By default the edit form provides an "Author:" field where a person editing a page can record his/her name with the edit being performed. Author names are limited to letters, numbers, underscores, and hyphens--basically the same characters allowed in [[Links]]. Authorship of edits can then be viewed via the PageHistory command for any page.˛˛Within the RecentChanges pages, author names become links to "profile pages" where authors can store information about themselves. By default these pages are stored in the "Profiles/" WikiGroup, but this can be changed by a site administrator to be a different group by setting the $AuthorGroup variable in ''config.php''.˛˛One can use the [=[[~name]]=] markup to refer to an author's profile page.˛˛As distributed, author names in PmWiki are optional--i.e., a user is not required to supply an author name with an edit. A site administrator can change this behavior via the $EnablePostAuthorRequired variable.˛˛%trail% <<|PmWiki.DocumentationIndex|>>˛ targets=PmWiki.Links,PmWiki.PmWiki,PmWiki.PageHistory,PmWiki.RecentChanges,PmWiki.WikiGroup,PmWiki.DocumentationIndex author=Pm name=PmWiki.AuthorTracking host=24.1.28.47 agent=Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0 rev=4
