Re: Automatic WikiLinks?
Hi warsoul;
Yes Rick is right about the two ways to do what you want.
Two ways:
1. Make your pages with WikiWords.
which means having two or more words with Capital letters and no space. I do not like the look of that but it is the easiest way to make it work. This is a good choice on a site where you have folk that may remember to do the double cap thing but will not remember to bracket the words.
2. Surround your page name with and
The double bracket method is my choice but you have to make sure that every one that wants a link on a page remembers to do it. This is a good choice if you are working with a site that has editors that will insure that existing pages are being linked to.
One neat advantage to this is that you could have a page linked or not depending on if you bracket it or not.
On some sites We may want some word to always create a link. TW has a neat feature to allow you to do this. it is called "HotWords" and can be found under the admin section in the main menu.
if you use method one or two you can still use three.
Hotwords work well if you have a word that is not a WikiWord and you want to be linked even if you are use the double bracket method and some one forgets to add the brackets.
3. Hotwords
go main menu, admin, hotwords
add the word and the link, now that was easy. Unfortunatly it takes a bit of time if you have a lot of words.
This is a good way to have key words always bring up relevent pages or out side web sites.
humm I should put that in the empty HotWords page.
