I was very please to find PBwiki but I need a workable solution to the below issues before I will have faith to use it further:
The 'free' or 'trial' version asks for a private or public setting yet does not have the private functionality - this is misleading and should be made clear before the account is established!
This combined with the fact that you can't exchange the email address that you submit to open the account (believing that it would be 'Private') for another email address leaves me dis-trusting what otherwise appears to be just what I was looking for!
So why not just delete the new wiki and start again - because I used the wiki name that I want and it says that if you delete a wiki the name will never be available again!
It used to be anyone could edit as long as they had the wiki password. It looks as though that's changed, and now my students are presented with a login page when they try to edit a page. They cannot log in (too young) and I don't want to create dummy logins.
I've been having trouble adding images to my pbwiki pages and aligning them to left or right.
It's often worked before - but at the moment, when I add images and align them left or right, they don't seem to show up when Firefox or Opera are used to browse that page (IE works fine). If I remove the "align" bit of the "img" tag, the images show up - but not in the layout I want, obviously.
It's not a very complicated page (homepage of the wiki, at foleshillfields.pbwiki.com) - and the source code looks sensible and fine.
