    Posted by boer84

    I am researching TikiWiki for a company and have a few things that I can't seem to find.
    Can anybody assist me.

    1. Is it able to mark documents as confidential, with different status (complete etc.) and with different priority?

    2. Does it allow importing of external documents to create a new document or to add as a new version to an existing one?

    3. Does it allow exporting to an external document?

    4. Does it have the ability to specify default values?

    5. Does it allow Concurrent edits?

    6. Does it allow Concurrent views?

    7. Does it have the ability to check-in check out version control?

    8. Does it have the ability to search by title, keyword (can fall in content or title), author, date content, ownner etc.. List all search parameters that can be available?

    9. Can documents be easily printed?

    10. What type of formating is allowed? Are there any formatting restrictions?

    11. What extensions are supported? Can custom extensions be built?

    12. What type of information is maintained/can be maintained for each document?

    13. Does the wiki support team structure?

    14. Can blogs and chats be stored?

    15. Can blogs be monitored?

    16. Can blogs be reviewed before being published?

    17. If blogs and discussions are supported then can they be referenced in artlicles?

    18. Can external documents link to content on our wiki?

    19. Can the content be exported easily to other content management sites? Sharepoint etc.?

    20. Initial Wiki Set up (level of difficulty)?

    21. Ease of set-up of role-based access?

    Any help will be appreciated. Thank you

    Tiki content is stored in a database. Your other site would need to access the data from the DB.
