I have had a problem with seeing the RSS feeds of our DokuWiki in Safari for years. I think I have tracked it down to the fact that Safari does not authenticate to retrieve the feeds. In Firefox, if you have logged in, you see the RSS as you would expect. It is important that our DokuWiki is secure, so I can't bypass the ACLs. If I use the form feed://XXX/feed.php?u=username&p=password then Safari does authenticate and then behaves properly - but, your password is stored in the History and you then stay authenticated for what appears to be an arbitrary length of time, regardless of quitting Safari.
I have read the note at
http://www.dokuwiki.org/syndication#approach_with_htusers, but I don't really understand how to achieve this - and how to keep it up-to-date as user info changes.
Can anyone spare the time to help me figure this out? Thanks.
