Re: How can I create a link to a namespaced page?

Ah I see, that is good to know.  Thanks for your response.

The availability of a WYSIWYG editor and the ability to not use wiki markup at all was actually one of the big "selling points" on TikiWiki.   Compare to MediaWiki where there won't even be a working WYSIWYG editor (that doesn't break other plugins) for unknown weeks or months.  But obviously it is recognized that a wider user base is possible if users don't need to learn any kind of markup to make changes to a document.  It can save a lot of time in an organization if a non-technical user can suggest a change directly rather than having to go through a manual review process involving their supervisor and the wiki manager before anything even gets done online.

For myself, I already know HTML and can drop into the source to do anything that I can't do in WYSIWYG mode, and having to learn yet another markup syntax is a big drawback.  I have noticed little annoying things with CKE and I suppose in general in-browser WYSIWYG editors are still not mature compared to "real" editor applications, but as it stands it certainly seems most of the way there.

There are no comments at this time.
