Notice bugs and security issues

help hold up to date RFE, bugfixes, support, security issues
Requests For Enhancement is a chronological list of wishes from anyone. That means that there is no priority ordering. Someone that just spend some hours listing RFE can notice unlogical or redundant things, and can help sorting them out with comments.
For security issues the bugs database has a special category. Do not publish any exploit code, but send a mail to security at tiki.org that is composed of admin plus some tiki contributors known for their expertise in security field.

Please see http://dev.tiki.org for feature requests & bugs.

I have written some code for tiki

contribute a patch
If it's a bugfix, a RFE answer, or a magic-new-feature, your code is gold. Prepare it with the attention it deserves : verify seven times that it won't break anything if it's used. If you have no access to the cvs, you can post your patch to the sourceforge patch page, or send it to an experienced tikiwiki developer for review, if you know one (come on irc if you wish to meet some).

Child pages

Keywords

The following is a list of keywords that should serve as hubs for navigation within the Tiki development and should correspond to documentation keywords.

Each feature in Tiki has a wiki page which regroups all the bugs, requests for enhancements, etc. It is somewhat a form of wiki-based project management. You can also express your interest in a feature by adding it to your profile. You can also try out the Dynamic filter.
