One project is to take our ((WYSIWYG)) editor and adapt it to generate Wiki Syntax instead: ((WYSIWYG Wiki)) This is a related but different project. Both projects are not mutually exclusive. We should aim to do both. Related: ((tw:Why Wiki Syntax is Important)) The first part of ''WYSIWYG-ish'' wiki was done in ((Tiki4)) as described at: http://ui.tiki.org/Text+area+editing+helper Phase 2 of the project is developed below: !! More clearly segment wiki vs html pages Regular use is to use __either__ # html pages (CKeditor) ** no backlinks ** no wiki syntax, etc.) ** uses HTMLdiff by default # wiki pages no CKeditor and only editors can attempt the round trip (tiki_p_convert_to_wiki_syntax) since this is tricky and may need cleanup !! AJAX dynamic preview This is part of ((Tiki5)) !! WYSIWYG in mini-zones in a page * ((PluginWYSIWYG)) !! Ideas from MediaWiki's WYSIFTW http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/WYSIFTW ! Benefits * WYSYWYG editor support in Tiki would be just as good/bad as any other CMS that uses CK Editor * Wiki syntax pages are still available for use cases that require it * AJAX preview is a middle ground
