===== Quick config for a personal website =====

1. Edit the local.php file : choose a title for your website, choose a start page (that must exist, so create it first !), activate the Access Control List, and choose a group (admin here) which is allowed to edit the pages. It becomes :

<php>
$conf['title']       = 'The Title of my website';
$conf['start']       = 'Home';
$conf['useacl']      = 1;
$conf['superuser']   = '@admin';
</php>

If your webserver has deactivated file functions in php like chmod, rmdir... you must add :

<php>
$conf['safemodehack'] = 1;
</php>


2. Edit acl.auth.php to allow anybody to read your site, change this line at the bottom of the file :

<php>
*               @ALL        1
</php>


3. Edit users.auth.php : describe the users, with their login, password... and group (to allow them to edit the pages) ! Put it at the end of the file :

<php>
a_user:xxxxxxxyyyy5555555:Miles Davis:miles@mail.org:admin
another_user:xxxxxxzzzzzz6666666:Jaco Pastorius:jaco@bass.org:admin
</php>
