Hi Curtis, Sorry for the late reply, I've been on holiday :S Curtis Matthews wrote:
I've just recently noticed I'm not able to call the JumpSearch and RecentChanges methods in the Basic ZWiki because I'm not authorized to call a method called aq_parent. Has anyone else had this problem, and is there a solution?
This is a 'feature' of ZWiki according to Simon Michael, it's author, I think it's a bug ;-) Basically, ZWiki Pages (RecentChanges is a ZWiki Page) execute DTML contained in themselves with the 'Anonymous' role, supposedly as a security precaution. This means that 'Anonymous' must have the 'Access Contents Information' permission for RecentChanges and several other things to work. This makes it practically impossible to have a Wiki that is secure :/ This is a hard problem to solve, see Jim Fulton's server side trojan stuff for a detailed discussion. I don't like the current solution, it's confusing. A better, but not best ;-), solution would be to make ZWiki pages execute with any proxy roles they have and only those roles, or even have a seperate 'This Wiki Page has these roles' configuration box. A workaround would be to make RecentChanges a DTML method rather than a ZWiki page. You should just be able to copy and paste the contents. HTH, Chris
