Can a collapsible TOC widget be added to the QuickStart sidebar in pbwiki 2.0? If so, how?

If the pbwiki is going to be used for legal, business, government, medical industry etc purposes, there should probably be a way for redacting information in a document. in the editor, selecting text and pressing the redact button will cause it to have a strikethrough and be gray or something like that to the editor. Readers only see a block of gray and can not read the text. This has to be a server-side filter so that page source does not contain the redacted information.

Also, although not essential, a nice to have is a permanent storage for redacted wiki pages (as opposed to deleted). Only admins could see the redacted pages. Once redacted, the page can not be deleted from the redacted pages. A single-button redact would be nice for admins.

A business purpose for redacted pages is when the company has an official policy. You don't want to delete the old policy because it is a legal document and you keep copies of old policies.

For healthcare there are legal requirements for HIPAA (patient privacy). You might want some information redacted when you make a form public or viewable by an outside organization.

Of course the military would want a way to redact before publication.

With the Pbwiki back to school challenge, it's possible to get points for adding a banner. What is considered a banner and how are they added to a wiki?

I want more view and print controls. For example, it would be nice to be able to print pages without comments. A +/- box beside comments to expand or contract would do this. It would be good to be able to lock out various visibility on the view page to make FAQ sites.

I have 50 (1 for each state) links to wiki pages that I need, and now I see I can't use a selectbox I was using in V1, how can I accomplish this without 50 + links on a page?

Any idea on the Scrum Essential training offered by Microsoft & Neudesic. Seem interesting ...

I just upgraded to 2.0 and am sad to see the loss of some of the best features that made pbwiki my wiki of choice. For my purposes the new sidebar and comments sections simply take up too much valuable screen real estate. I have read through the help center responses to questions regarding removing the sidebar and comment section and unfortunately feel the staff responses failed to understand the user's needs.

Does anyone have any hacks for this problem, or am I forced to look for a new wiki home?

I'm trying to make our business Wiki more...professional, interesting looking, and inviting. Even customizing the color scheme leaves me wanting more. Premade skins or different layouts would be great. A previous comment said that businesses want their wiki to be boring in Wiki2.0...I cannot disagree with you more. I want my employees to be able to enjoy their Wiki and to make it more inviting so they will come back. Is it possible to switch from 2.0 back to 1.0? It appears that 1.0 is more customizable. More options please in 2.0... :)

PB Wiki Summer Camp: Does anyone or should we expect students to sign an AUP Acceptable Use Policy when they sign in? I do like the simple rules on some of the pages I've seen so far, but I'm wondering about a more detailed one also. Any thoughts?

I was trying to use the TOC plugin but was not having any success. I added my heading and formatted them but when I viewed the TOC it showed both the links and the original text seperately. It appeared twice. What did I do wrong? Does the plugin offer easier or better features than just adding links?

is it possible to have say 50 members on line with a controller so that he can limit voice communications to one person a a time?

Hey folks,

PBwiki (and several other sites) had some connectivity issues. We've been posting updates to the blog, but in a nutshell, the datacenter where our servers are housed had a power outage.

Once we had some of our servers up, we had PBwiki go into read-only mode, so you could at least read your wikis, if not edit them.

We've brought most everything back up, and you should be able to log in and edit your wikis now. We'll be continuing work thorough tonight to get the last few things fixed.

The data on your wikis is safe. :)

Again, keep an eye on the blog (http://blog.pbwiki.com), and I'm sure we'll have more updates for you tomorrow.

Thank you again for your patience.

Definition of TWIT a person who uses Twitter - I think this would be much better than TWITTERER or TWEETER?

There is nothing to be ashamed about being called a TWIT!

Is PBwiki a good idea for keeping your personal notes in? Currently. I'm using SpringNote which is note-taking oriented. I wondering if PBwiki is a good alternative to that or should I stick with SpringNote as my online note taking application of choice? Would PBwiki v2 be better oriented for this?
