Join the Universal Edit Button movement

Thu, 19 Jun 2008 20:03:14 -0000

Are you aware of/participating in the Universal Edit Button movement? It sounds as if it has great potential to enervate a participatory culture and seems as if it is in line with PBwiki goals and objectives.

Why is my image's properties of "left" not working?

Wed, 18 Jun 2008 18:58:03 -0000

My image properties work and look fine when editing, but a co-worker, editing the same Wiki, cannot get hers to work. Specifically she is wanting to align her image with text LEFT

What computer/browser problem would cause the editing tools to disappear?

Fri, 13 Jun 2008 21:20:17 -0000

I have a student who is using our class wiki (2.0 pbwiki), and when she tries to edit a page, it gives her a page error.

I can see that she's logged in and editing.

It does not show the toolbar or any text in the edit box. She is using a dell desktop with Internet Explorer installed as her browser.

She can use her laptop withour any problems. What could be missing - software? plugins? on her desktop?

Any ideas?
Thanks!

Comments without editing rights

Tue, 13 May 2008 22:46:40 -0000

Can you set up users to make comments but without any editing rights? The reader profile appears not to allow comments. The writer profile allows comments but also editing. Is there an intermediate user profile that allows comments but not editing?

Why is font always defaulting to Lucida Sans in authoring?

Thu, 08 May 2008 14:42:38 -0000

My authoring text defaults to lucida sans, whether I am just adding new text, adding a table row, or adding a link. I am constantly having to "select all" and change all to Arial. For instance, everything is Arial - I add a link - and the link becomes Lucida Sans. I can change all table text to Arial, add a new row, and the new row is Lucida Sans.

Why is the classic wiki editing style used automatically in Opera?

Thu, 08 May 2008 04:07:45 -0000

Why is the classic wiki editing style used automatically in Opera? It works just as well as with other browsers. I set the User Agent Switcher plugin in Firefox to identify itself as Opera, and the page renders the classic editing style. I've tried it in Opera, and it automatically goes to the classic style unless I set it to identify itself as another browser. This was a hassle for me because I use both FF and OP.

How can I let folks who don't have a PBwiki account, edit my wiki?

Thu, 01 May 2008 18:14:07 -0000

I am using PBWiki2.0 and I just discovered that folks can't edit my wiki unless they create a PBwiki account. Is that true? If so, I don't like this new feature. I want to make my wiki public (which I have) AND allow folks who know the password to edit it. This was possilbe witheht old version. Should I go back to it? Help!

Spreadsheet Editing? In page view?

Mon, 28 Apr 2008 03:56:36 -0000

I need help with spreadsheets. I really planned on using this students could access them anywhere. Why is it that the spreadsheet isn't editable in edit mode, but is editable in page view?

Is it possible for the page view owner to put a lock on it?

This is a great feature for students.

Thanks

How do I edit tables without it screwing everything up?

Sun, 27 Apr 2008 19:34:46 -0000

Editing tables is disastrous, I want to change the size of 1 column of cells. Changing the size in cell properties does nothing. Changing the table size changes them all. Why can the tables not have individually moveable borders like any other decent text program in the world?

Trying to reformat text in the table is a mess.

Tried creating the table in word and inserting it, pbwiki just screws it up and it is unfixable.

How do I let anyone with a pbwiki account edit my 2.0 pbwiki?

Wed, 23 Apr 2008 04:16:31 -0000

How do I let anyone with a pbwiki account edit my 2.0 pbwiki? I'd rather not invite EVERYONE one email at a time. Or even just let anyone edit. ANYHING that will avoid inviting new users. That will probably make me leave pbwiki (and I even pay for it!)

Page Sidebar

Mon, 14 Apr 2008 15:57:10 -0000

What is the purpose of the sidebar on my wiki? I've never used a wiki before. How do I change the sidebar?

Granting folder-level editing privileges

Mon, 14 Apr 2008 14:11:55 -0000

Can different folders on my wiki have different permissions? In other words, can I make some folders editable by anyone and others editable only by people I designate?

Student project

Mon, 07 Apr 2008 21:10:11 -0000

Can I have students in my classlog into my wiki as writers, create/add a wiki page and link that page to my wiki? I don't know that all of them have e-mail addresses so I don't know if the invite function would work. Any suggestions?

'Remove formatting' option in point & click

Mon, 24 Mar 2008 20:28:52 -0000

I think the point and click editor for the PBWiki could benefit from a 'remove formatting' button. I often find it difficult to switch from one highly-formatted type of font to another, or to remove formatting such as links. It typically involves having to delete the text involved, as well as any leading or trailing white space that might have taken on the formatting as well. Sometimes it requires deleting into the word before it in order to take on that formatting. Needless to say, this can be very irritating and difficult to work with. A way to simply remove formatting from selected font would solve the problem nicely.

Can we have a way to "save and continue editing" pages, so that we aren't forced to leave editing mode every time we want to save our work?

Tue, 12 Feb 2008 20:21:39 -0000

Being forced to go directly to the page each time I want to save is a productivity killer, as opposed to having a "save and continue" or splitting the save into "save" and "save and exit" buttons. Please give us a way to save our work without leaving editing mode.
