Creating a new wiki page¶

As in every wiki, just add a link to the page you want to create.

[[MyNewWikiPage]]

Save the page and click on that link: you have created a new wiki page with "MyNewWikiPage" as its name.

Creating an additional wiki side bar¶

The content of the wiki page named 'Sidebar' is rendered in the wiki sidebar if it exists. Permission to edit protected pages is required to create this page

Creating sub-pages (parent/child relationships)¶

It is possible to create parent/child relationships between wiki-pages. This has two benefits:

• On the "Index by title", the page tree in sorted according to the relationhips:

• Guide
  • RedmineAccounts
  • RedmineCustomFields
  • RedmineInstall
  • RedmineIssueList
  • RedmineIssues

• On each child page a breadcrumb is displayed showing the location of the page within the page tree:
  TODO, add image

These relations can be set by assigning a parent page to a to-be child-page. This assignment can be done via the rename dialog only.
Thus, create both the child- and parent-pages and then open the to-be child-page and click "rename", then enter the name of the parent page and click "save".

Text formatting¶

See RedmineTextFormatting.

Protecting a wiki page¶

If you have the permission to protect wiki pages, you can click on Lock.

A locked wiki page can only be edited by users who have the permission to protect wiki page.
It can be unlocked by those users by clicking Unlock.

Wiki page history¶

Redmine keeps a record of every change made to a wiki page. You can view the list of these changes by clicking on History.

To view a specific version of the page click on its number.

You can revert a page to a previous version by clicking on Rollback to this version, then Save.

Sidebar¶

The contextual sidebar on the right of any wiki page provides links to:

• Start page: Link to the configured start page of the wiki
• Index by title: Index of all the wiki pages sorted by name (and, if configured, by parent/child relationships)

TODO, add image

• Index by date: Index of all the wiki pages sorted by date of last modification

TODO, add image
