TWiki Groups

%GROUPS%
<form action“%SCRIPTURLPATH{“edit”}%/%WEB%/” method“get”>
<div class“twikiFormSteps”>
<div class“twikiFormStep twikiLast”>

| |%ICON{“warning”}%Note: A group topic name must be a %TWIKIWEB%.WikiWord andmust end in …Group. New topics are based on TWikiGroupTemplate |
<input type“hidden” name“templatetopic” value“TWikiGroupTemplate”/>
<input type“hidden” name“topicparent” value“%TOPIC%”/>
<input type“hidden” name“onlywikiname” value“on” />
<input type“hidden” name“onlynewtopic” value''“on” />
</div>
</div>
</form>
IMPORTANT NOTE: Think twice before restricting write access to a web or a topic, because an open system where everybody can contribute is the essence of %TWIKIWEB%.WikiCulture. Experience shows that unrestricted write access works very well because:
- There is enough peer pressure to post only appropriate content.
- Content does not get lost because topics are under revision control.
- A topic revision can be undone by a member of the %MAINWEB%.TWikiAdminGroup if necesssary.
