Re: Re: New tiki user, some questions/issues with my install
Hello GothicWizard,
good to hear, whhints can be some help for the users.
To your updates:
I suggest, that you send a link to your website; I register and report about the eMail I will be receiving or not receiving.
You need only to copy/paste these Plugins into the textarea and use the appropriate parameters and values, depending of what you want to achieve - for example there are parameters for the Plugin IMG (display an image) where you can define the source of the mage, the size, the appearance, optional a link when ou click on it etcetera.
One easy example from this forum post would be the "QUOTE" plugin:
{QUOTE(replyto="GothicWizard")} 2. I looked at this 'plug ins' you linked to. But reading it it just seems like it is a line or two of code but unclear what I do with it. Or how to plug it 'in' tiki. {QUOTE}
or with "CODE":
{CODE()} {QUOTE(replyto="GothicWizard")} 2. I looked at this 'plug ins' you linked to. But reading it it just seems like it is a line or two of code but unclear what I do with it. Or how to plug it 'in' tiki. {QUOTE} {CODE}
You will see the possible parameters and values of the various plugins on our documentation website and as we have a strict system in naming the plugin-doc-pages, you can use a cutoff:
doc.tiki.org/PluginPluginname
ex.: doc.tiki.org/PluginImg - doc.tiki.org/PluginYoutube - etcetera
The themes you find in the themes folder of your tiki root (from Tiki 14 onwards).
tikiroot > themes > themename
There you find CSS, Templates, LESS etcetera.
For a simple change, when you d not want to alter the theme on the server you can go to the control panels to Look and Feel to the Custom CSS field and put the appropriate CSS direct into it. Please mind, that this will be applying to any theme you apply, so do that either for quick test or after you finalised your desicion, which theme you choose.

We use the CKE Editor for WYSIWYG (same as Joomla and other projects).
Some of us love it, others hate it. WikiSyntax definitely works more reliably and afaik in CKE you cannot nest WikiPlugins or if you can, then only to a certain extent.
There are a number of settings you could choose to let CKE/WYSIWYG working more reliably in Tiki, so for example make WYSIWYG optional (keeping WikiSyntax available for advanced users) - open with the same editor - and save page content as WikiSyntax.
With the right settings WYSIWYG should be at least a valuable option for average users, whilst on pages edited by pro users only you still can avoid it (use category permissions to deside where advanced users only edit).
You are welcome.
Greetz,
Torsten
