on the features selection page there is a checkbox for each feature with its name next to it. In normal Web UIs a checkbox is next to a <label> tag which contains the text referring to the setting the checkbox controls. If you set up the name= and title= for both the input and the label then clicking that text automatically selects the checkbox.
This is not always implemented properly across the web but it is the way forms are supposed to be used and it is easy and no one ever complains about it. It increases the effective size of the checkbox and cements the relationship with the word.
On the features selection page, however, the text instead links to the tikiwiki.org descriptions of the features. This confused me and happened several times before I retaught myself to not click the words.
I think that these pages should be reorganized to use labels and if necessary show an 'info' or '?' icon next to each feature name that links to the feature description.
While you're working on it, why not also add some kind of icon/screenshot to each feature on the list to give a sense of what it does?
Another way to simplify this ui would be to just include a brief description of each feature in the page btu hide them with JS. The 'info' button next to each label could pop down the description rather than dependign on the external page.
