a) I spent weeks testing these features one by one.

It will save time if all these features are enabled and complete with samples.

This is the approach used by Joomla and Mambo.

It also helps us learn faster.


b) The assist module is useful but asking users to read a tedious configuration as the first step will eat up too much time.

Site configuration or Look at Feel should be the first one.

It is also the most dangerous but essential.

c) Provide a clue, in the assist if possilbe, to replace a damaged header.tpl with a skeleton header.tpl

tiki-admin.php & Wizards: mouse-over the information, warning, help icons doesn't show the expected content but the label again

Just try the same thing in a 12.x to compare:
{flash type="url" movie="display846" width="631" height="500"}

Tracker plugins are great.

There should be something about them in the tips, when creating trackers.

The new plugin manager in 3.0 is much more intuitive. It helps uses build plugins with a javascript plugin, documents each syntax, show mandatory fields in bold and offers a global link to the documentation.

This is precisely what we would need for the trackers field type helper.

At tiki-admin.php?page=textarea&cookietab=2&highlight=wikiplugin_dynamicvariables#contentadmin_textarea-1 the help link for "Wiki argument variables" goes to : https://doc.tiki.org/Advanced-Wiki-syntax-usage-examples

It should go to : https://doc.tiki.org/Wiki-Argument-Variables

The plugin section of the wiki help is listing the plugins aplhabetically based on their english name. When it is translated to another language the sorting remains based on the english name, it is quite confusing and looks a bit chaotic in other languages in my opinion. Is there a specific reason why the code here is written this way? If not, can this be fixed for Tiki 4? I dont know how to do it but would appreciate it :)

The save button is gone from the wikiplugin modal.

To reproduce edit a wiki page, click on the help icon, choose the "Plugin Help" tab select a plugin.

It is not possible to add a plugin from the Wiki page help tool. (tested on ff and chrome)
