* Optional: You can add new rendering rules or new %VARIABLES%. To insure an easy upgrade of TWiki it is recommended to do this customization in `twiki/bin/wikicfg.pm` , not `twiki/bin/wiki.pm` .
* Optional: If you are on a non authenticated server (i.e. not using SSL) and you would like to authenticate users:
- * Rename file `.htaccess.txt` in the `twiki/bin` directory to `.htaccess` and change it to your needs. For details consult the HTTP server documentation (for Apache server: [[1]](http://www.apache.org/docs/mod/directives.html), [[2]](http://www.mcs.kent.edu/system/web_help/htaccess/introduction.html)). In particular, the following <font>red</font> part needs to be configured correctly: <br /><code>Redirect <font>/urlpath/to/TWiki/index.html</font> http://<font>your.domain.com/urlpath/to/TWiki/bin/</font>view</code><br /><code>AuthUserFile <font>/filepath/to/TWiki/data/</font>.htpasswd</code><br /><code>ErrorDocument 401 <font>/urlpath/to/TWiki/bin/</font>view/TWiki/TWikiRegistration</code>

* **_Note:_** The browser should ask for login name and password when you click on the <u>Edit</u> link. In case `.htaccess` does not have the desired effect you need to enable it: Add "AllowOverride All" to the Directory section of `access.conf` for your `twiki/bin` directory.
* Copy the [[TWikiRegistrationPub]] topic to [[TWikiRegistration]]. Do that by either editing the topics in the%TWIKIWEB% web, or by renaming the `.txt` and `.txt,v` files in the `twiki/data/%TWIKIWEB%` directory.
* **_Note:_** You can customize the registration form if needed, like deleting or adding input tags. The `name=""` parameter of the input tags must start with: `"Twk0..."` (if this is an optional entry), or `"Twk1..."` (if this is a required entry). This will ensure that the fields are processed correctly.
+ * A new line containing user name and encrypted password gets added to the `data/.htpasswd` file when a users registers. The file that comes with the TWiki installation contains a few user accounts of TWiki core team members (needed for testing). You can edit the file and delete those lines.
* Optional: You can automatically generate usage statistics for all webs. To enable this:
* Make sure variable `$doLogTopicView, $doLogTopicSave and $doLogTopicUpload` in `wikicfg.pm` are set. This will generate log entries in file `twiki/data/log<date>.txt` .
