The Wiki-tag system is the language you can use when you edit Wiki pages, there's a common set of features that are usually present at all Wikis that Tiki maintains--as well as some special features not frequently found in Wikis that Tiki adds.

A quick reference to the Wiki-tag system is available at the bottom of a Wik page. Click Wiki quick help to view it.

Normal text

References to other Wiki pages

References are created when you use WikiWordscapitalized words smashed together, with a capital in the middle. If the referenced Wiki page already exists a link to it will be shown. If not, a link to edit the page will be displayeddesignated with a question mark after the Wiki word.

You can prevent a name from being converted into a page by using the following syntax

You can use the following notation to create references to pages without using Wiki-style capitalization:

If you want to enter a description for a Wiki page use:

In this case, This is the description will display instead of the original Wiki link.

Links to external Wikis, inter-Wiki links

As admin you can define sites that can be used as external Wikis. From the admin menu click on the External Wikis link to get to this screen:

In this screen you can add any number of external Wiki sites. You have to enter a name (no whitespaces, please) and the URL in the extwiki field. The $page special syntax must be used to place the name of the page in the URL.

Once the external Wikis are set up you can use this syntax to link to an external Wiki:

In our example (DemoTiki:HomePage) will be replaced by a link to http://alt.thetinfoilhat.com/tiki-index.php?page=HomePage

Links to external pages

Links to external pages can be entered using one of the following formats:

The first format will display the URL as a link while the second one will display the description as a link to the given URL. The third syntax can be used to prevent the link to the cache from being displayed in the page.

Tiki will automatically cache references to external pages or sites and a link to the cache will be displayed following the link. This is particulary useful when you link to notes or sections that may change or that may disappear in a near future. (Very similar to the Google cache when you see the results of a search in Google.) You can disable caching pages from the admin screen.

Bold and italic text

Bold text can be entered using two underscores before and after the text.

Italics are displayed using two single quotes before and after the text

Underline

If you want to underline text you can use the following syntax:

Monospaced

Sometimes it is needed to use monospaced font inside paragraph to indicate word or more (usualy shell command, API name, etc.). To do this use

Colors

You can display text using any HTML color with the following syntax:

The color can be written in hexadecimal, as in this example, or you can use a short name like red , blue and others (try them).

Centering text

If you want text to be centered you can use the following syntax:

Special characters

~lt~, ~gt~, ~ddd~,
where ddd = decimal code of symbol (3 digits)
