Description

TW5.0beta1
http://dev.tikiwiki.org/Hello+World#To_create_a_new_pluginQuestion seems to be outdated. the plugin cannot be installed i the prescribed way.
By the time a php plugin file with a "wikiplugin_" prefix is saved to the lib/wiki-plugins folder, the Administration/Editing, plugins gives an empty pages. So do all the pages containing the new wiki plugin. Nothing is listed as a plug-in to be installed.

Two smaller corrections

  • The sample code containing an extra '}' (last but one in wikiplugin_helloworld_info())
  • The name to save the plugin must be lib/wiki-plugins/wikiplugin_helloworld.php instead of lib/wiki-plugins/wikiplugin-helloworld.php.

Solution
Please update the documentation!
