PreventUploadOverwrites
<< | Cookbook-V1 | >>
Note: The recipes here are for PmWiki versions 0.6 and 1.0 only. For PmWiki 2.0 recipes, see Cookbook.
Goal
Prevent users from being able to overwrite existing attachments/uploads.
Solution
Add the following code to local.php:
$EnableUploadOverwrite = 0;
Discussion
By default, the PmWiki.Uploads feature allows authorized users to overwrite existing attachments. For some applications this is inappropriate, especially since the upload/attachment feature doesn't have an easy mechanism for recovering previous versions of an attachment. Setting $EnableUploadOverwrite
to zero tells the upload.php module to not allow existing files to be overwritten.
