I'm looking for a way that a user can post a question to a page and that user will not be shown as recently editing the page (they will be anonymous). We want to give users the ability to freely ask questions without being afraid that their identity will be given away, any ideas?
I tried using the {table-data}/{text-data} macros but that updates the page.
The other solution I thought of was using the {checklist}/{checklist-wikiinput} macros but that requires me to make a list of empty pages ahead of time and seems sloppy.
Any other ideas?
I assume you mean that the user is currently logged in, but you want them to be anonymous? Just to be sure, you can in fact allow anonymous access - you just need to open it up (first in global permissions and then in space permissions).
If a user is logged in, this is quite tricky. I can't really think of a way, unless you were to write a plugin that somehow circumvented the update page method.
How about creating a theme or customized css where the username isn't displayed - would that be sufficient?
I am familiar with the anonymous access ability but we don't want to allow that.
We also would like to avoid creating or customizing the theme because it is only a single page that we want to allow this on.
I just wanted to check and see if there were any simple ways to do this but seems like there might not be...
