Wiki Instructions
Adding Pages
It's easy to add new pages to the wiki. Simply enclose a word or two inside [wiki] ... [/wiki] tags. The word you choose will automatically become a local link to another page in the wiki database.
If the file doesn't exist, a new page will be automatically created.
For example, [wiki]example[/wiki] will automatically create a new page called 'example', which will become a link. If the page already exists, then it simply adds a link.
Notes:
- Non alphanumeric characters and spaces are automatically removed.
- The initial letter is displayed as a capital when viewing the page, but the filename itself is case sensitive.
- If you have two or more words with spaces between them, the filename will become all one word, but my wiki script will automatically capitalise each first letter and add a space between words when viewing the page.
- The maximum permitted filename length is 30 characters, so please ensure that any [wiki]...[/wiki] names are less than 30 characters, or they will be truncated and the link may not work.
- Once you've created a page, you may want to familiarise yourself with tags
Examples:
- [wiki]example[/wiki] will create a page with filename example and when viewed the title will appear as Example.
- [wiki]example page[/wiki] will create a page with filename examplepage and when viewed the title will appear as Examplepage.
- [wiki]Example Page[/wiki] will create a page with filename ExamplePage and when viewed the title will appear as Example Page.
