+After you have enabled [[:ACL]] in the config file you need to decide how you like to store user data. DokuWiki supports various methods and creating a new one is pretty easy. [[:DokuWiki]] uses so–called authentication plugins that provide certain methods to store user data and passwords. The user won't even see this plugin but you as an administrator have to set up your desired authentication plugin and configure it properly. If the available plugins do not fulfill the requirements, you can create your own auth plugin. For details see [[devel:Auth Plugins|How to write an Authentication Plugin?]] Since the release 2013-05-10 “Weatherwax” DokuWiki uses Authentication Plugins instead of Authentication Backends.
