Wiki Plugin for forumify
This plugin allows admins to create wikis for their community.
Wiki pages are created using Markdown, if you're new to Markdown then we'd recommend visiting Markdown Guide.
Getting Around
Every wiki starts at its main page, and everything else is reachable from the left-hand menu.
| Component | What it does |
|---|---|
| Search box | Searches the titles and text within the wiki. Use at least two characters. |
| Main page, recent changes, all pages | Takes you to the front page, the latest edits, or an A-Z list of every page. |
| Wanted pages | Lists pages that other pages link to but nobody has written yet. |
| Protected pages | Lists pages only moderators can change. |
| Category list | An accordion of the wiki's categories. |
| Read, Edit, History | Tabs at the top of each page. Edit only appears if you are allowed to edit that page. |
| Contents box | A numbered list of the page's sections, shown in the article on pages with three or more headings. |
On a phone, the menu is folded away under Browse this wiki, so the article comes first.
