Allow the Wiki to operate in a mode where it will force a login screen, and only account holders to be able to view the site. This is useful for pre-launch content population on a public URL as well as longer-term private Wikis.

This can already be done.

Simply modify the access rules of the Guest user (Admin area > Groups > Guest).

Nicolas Giard:I am not able to block anonymous users from accessing the site. I have not selected any permission in the Guest group but still anyone can view, edit, delete pages on the site.

Akhil Sharma: Have you tried in another browser and cleared your cookies? Editing and deleting pages is not possible as a guest. Looks like you're still logged in.

Nicolas Giard: Found the issue. In DB, guest account was assigned admin permissions. Simply fixing that helped with the issue mentioned above.

Thanks for your response.
