Features / Usability

> You are right: the docs on structures are NOT clear enough. After struggling and succeed on over Joomla, Moodle, SMF and b2evolution in my site, this program is going to defeat me...

Don't give up. 😉 Tiki has many more features and configuration options than those programs (combined), so naturally it takes some time to become familiar with them.

> According to your proposal how I create a glossary "eBAwords", with the letter/s "Aba ~ Azy" and so on, and into the letter "Aba - Azy" the term "Alternating-possession rule" and so on...

First decide on the page hierarchy that you want. I suppose following the original, you would have something like this (children are indented from the parent level):

global_Indexe
 global_A
  global_Aba
  global_Ala
  global_Asa
 global_B
  global_Bab

and so on. If you want to exactly duplicate your original structure, you will need to use the ANCHOR or NAME wikiplugins (I forgot exactly what these are called — you can check in the Show Plugins Help on the wiki edit page) in order to have anchors within pages to link to, for the actual glossary words themselves.

If you make a hierarchy of the desired pages, just as I have shown, with the indenting, you can go to the Admin Structures page (tiki-admin_structures.php)and create a new structure called, perhaps, Glossary. Then paste your hierarchy (as above) into the "tree" box. This will create all of the wiki pages needed.

Then you can click on the name of the structure to edit it. I suggest clicking on each page name to give it an alias if you want to keep the "global_" portion of the names. The page aliases can be simply "A", "Aba" and so on, for a better on-page display. (Alternatively, I suggest not using the "global_" portion of the name. In a wiki, the page name generally is displayed on the page, so it's good to not have something that detracts from understanding.

From the "Modify Structure:Glossary" (or whatever its name) page (tiki-edit_structure.php), you can click on each page's "edit" or "view" link to quickly navigate to it. (Shift-click is good, to open it in a new window.)

To get the alphabet links at the top of the Glossary index page, you'll have to edit the page much like your original, except you can use wiki syntax, something like

> And how it appears in the left menu, how the guest reach to this items...
> Before, I had the "Articles" menu, now I don't know HOW the visitor reaches the terms....

To get to the glossary's top page, you can specify it as the home page, on the Admin: General page. Or you can make a link to it in a custom menu that you would add to the left column.
