Category: Wiki (page view, edit, history, rename, etc)

A user typo whilst creating a structure can create a new page which then isn't (easily) accessed.

Whilst creating a new structure and adding pages with aliases using the "Tree" feature, if hyphen space greater-than rather than simply hyphen greater-than is entered the new page is created without an alias but with a longer that expected page name.

For example
Test_01 -> Page1 creates new page called Test_01 and alias Page1 as expected.
But
Test_02 - > Page2 creates a new page called "Test_02 - > Page2" with no alias.

Accessing this page and removing it is challenging :-))

--(Can't currently create a show instance for you, no database connection available, but I can reproduce this on the demo 18x/system)--

Using the Structures "next page" button from page Test_01 causes a wiki error "Page not found" for "Test_02 - Page2" (sic without greater-than sign).

Likewise wikilink from toc generated on pages within the structure also results in "Page not found".

Adding the plugin listpages with options find="Test_0" to the root of the structure shows the pages as expected.

Note the wikilink URLs generated by toc and listpages are different, but wikilink from listpages also results in the same "Page not found error" for the same page "Test_02----Page2"

It's a ((WYSIWYCA)) bug. Anonymous users can't remove page versions, so interface shouldn't offer it.

@fabio: please coach team as needed

The edit button (and switch to wysiwyg) link to nowhere (except back to homepage.)

This appears to be an ajax related problem many buttons/links do not work.

verified on my site and 110.tikiwiki.org

edit button links to:
http://sitename.com/#


switch to wysiwyg does not work, navigation buttons in list-pages,

This should be migrated to the community site, and handled with ((doc:Organic groups)) and ((doc:User Trackers))

Wiki page draft requires AJAX.

I just tested in 2.0 RC2 and it's completely broken.
It conflicts with ((doc:Lost Edit)) protection

Hi to all,

I want to know if you can create a protected page that only logged in users can see, I know I can turn off the wiki so only logged in users can access it, but is there any way that I can put under restriction only a few pages since they contain some important info that can be shared only by users that have accounts on the wiki.

Many thanks

for example:
5 users in group home
6 pages in category home

I want all public can view these 6 pages in home category, but only these 5 users can edit pages content ( not the objects in the category, it is the content of the page!! ).
I know I can setup the permissions page by page to the home group, but what I am looking for is category to group relationship, not page to group, don't want to do it page by page, or maybe there is one way to do that, but I don't know yet.

Thank you very much.

Have a good day.

Best,
Peter

The new "saved_msg=y" fails when SEFURL is on - both new pages and editing. It gives me a 404 not-found error. Makes SEFURL pretty useless. Example:
http://www.casesofinterest.com/tiki/Everything+is+Patentable&saved_msg=y

Many times, in random places, the www will get knocked off the hostname. I think it mostly occurs when I submit a confirmation to do something. I noticed it again today on: ./tiki-removepage.php when I confirmed the page removal at www.casesofinterest.com, I was returned to casesofinterest.com - kind of annoying, as I wasn't logged in to casesofinterest.com. The www should not be dropped.

Tiki 7 includes the "Previous version" feature allowing links to refer to "older versions" of a wiki page (either by version number or date). What would be nice is to have a general way to browse an older snapshot of the *whole* wiki.
We have a wiki describing a quite complex scientific model and have a lot of model description in wiki pages. What we want is to access "snapshots" of the whole wiki. E.g: the state of the wiki from 1.1.2011 is the one describing the model version 1.2 and is used for this or this scientific publication. While the latest version of the wiki (27.6.2011) reflects ongoing developments one may want to surf the version from the 1.1. (e.g. to look for details that are not in the publication).
Is this (already) possible? I think an extension to the "previous version" function could do the trick (I have no idea of the inner workings of tikiwiki)...

If you recreate a wiki page by creating a new page with a temporary name, delete the old page, and rename the new page as the old page, the page name will appear twice in Last-Visited Pages (breadcrumb module).

This has happened to me seldom on different tikis (3.x, 4.x and nowadadays, even 5x!) on different servers, and it's very annoying for users or admins, since after you make a simple edit to some page, for some reason, it gets the content duplicated after saving your small edit. And it can be repeated 3 times, if you edit again, 4 time if edit again,. ..... I could only avoid it by rollbaking to the last version whithout those duplications.

Confirmed that this bug (related to the collapsible headings) is not fixed either yet in 5.0rc2. It seems to show up in some pages were collapsible headings; I mean:
{CODE()}
!!-

!!!-

etc.
{CODE}

Reproduced recently here:
[http://r-help-es.ourproject.org/tiki-pagehistory.php?page=Bienvenidos&history_offset=0&diff_style=sidediff&diff_style=sidediff&show_all_versions=y&compare=Comparar&newver=0&oldver=18&tra_lang=ca&paginate=on&history_pagesize=25|r-help-es.ourproject.org]

I just editted the
{CODE()}
{rss id=1}
{CODE}

to change it for
{CODE()}
{rss id=1:2}
{CODE}

as far as I remember, after a few previews and changes in the content before saving.

Then, the content was saved twice.

See the diff above and the resulting page:
http://r-help-es.ourproject.org/tiki-pagehistory.php?page=Bienvenidos&preview=19

This site is using tiki5.0rc2 , no ajax, and wysiwyg editor enabled, even if not used on that page.

I can provide admin access to that site to any coder willing to check this issue.

{CODE(wrap=>1)}[10:28] <xavi> since a few versions ago, I can't get wiki watch emails with a correct encoding for accents, etc.
[10:28] <xavi> smae behavior in many servers (using Tiki 4.x, 5.x... tried with setting utf-8 and iso-8859-1)
[10:29] <xavi> I get most emails all right , email reader (thunderbird, gmail, etc.) can read them properly, but not emails from changes in wiki pages...
[10:30] <xavi> I wonder if this can be some problem with the encoding in some tpl , or that the code for sending emails from changes in wiki pages uses some different method than the rest of email sending... and that other method is not handling charset properly... (just hypothesis)
[10:31] <xavi> asking here first in case someone who already knows the internals of Tiki has some tips...
[10:31] <xavi> to quickly refuse some hypothesis...
[10:32] * xavi fears looking at the code for this and getting lost in php code , zend code, and other gibberish which he can't understand easily....
[10:41] <xavi> ok, at least I know some more information about the problem (charset for wiki watch emails)
[10:42] <xavi> I double checked in one site, and everywhere is set to use utf-8 as encoding (admin general, admin community, and my own user pref settings), but wiki watch emails come with: "content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1"
[10:43] <xavi> ok, this deserves a bug report...

When I try to edit: https://doc.tiki.org/Items-List-and-Item-Link-Tracker-Fields

Hi. There are cases when you need a dump of the entire wiki. Such as for offline browsing. In my case, I need to be able to read the wiki when I can't run the web server.

There was the "Dump files" feature, which provided for this, but this is defunct and was about to be removed. See [https://dev.tiki.org/item8549-Defunct-old-Dump-Files-feature-should-be-removed|Defunct old "Dump Files" feature should be removed].

So I'm requesting to bring the feature back.

The ability to subscribe to a specific structure via RSS feed would be very useful. Currently one can subscribe to an RSS feed related to the entire wiki, but if several groups are using the wiki for different projects or purposes or topics, this may not be at all useful. For example, on the Southern New Hampshire University wiki, we have the online faculty handbook plus a variety of page sets related to different course projects. Most faculty should be alerted of changes to the faculty handbook, which resides in a structure, and some students and faculty may want to track changes to structures involved with specific courses or departments, but few if any users need to be alerted of every change to the wiki as a whole. The ability to generate an RSS feed specific to a structure (and possibly also specific to a category) would be very helpful.

It will be very useful when TikiWiki is used as a combined portal & Intranet


The key (and link to permissions) is already on tiki-listpages.php (great!)

Now, a green key could indicate this page has special permissions.

And maybe even a third key (say blue) indicates that the item is inheriting permissions via the category.

I am using Tiki for educational scenarios, and frequentñy I (or my students) want to change misspelled words (for instance) on long wiki pages.

Nowadays I'm taking the content out of the wiki-edit form, search and replace on in external program, anb back.
I could be nice to have this feature integrated into the edit page form.

{syntax type="tiki" editor="plain"}
In the early days when Tiki Wiki was primarily a Wiki tool, keeping the **wikiactions** page actions button constantly visible at the top of Wiki pages made sense.

However, now this button often obstructs the user experience, drawing attention away from content with its contrasting color, even when only one or two actions are available.

While outlining the button (as discussed in the Matrix chat) would be a quick improvement.

I also propose we also enhance the admin settings at `tiki-admin.php?page=wiki#contentadmin_wiki-1`. Adding a __group selector__ under "Wiki top line location" would allow admins to choose which user groups see the page_actions button.

While I added and saved some plugin icon (PluginSign) on toolbars on tiki.org and cleared the Tiki cache, the change is not reflected when editing a wiki page. It still shows the previous older toolbars setup and the icon does not appear there while on Admin Toolbars it is shown. See Row 2 on https://tiki.org/tiki-admin_toolbars.php (when you have Admin access of course).
