How do I link to a wikipage?

Click “Link” in the toolbar.


Make sure “WikiPage” is selected in the “Page Type” dropdown menu.


In the “Link to wiki page” dropdown menu, select the name of an existing page, in this case "WhatWikiIs".


In “Link Text” you can type the wording of the link you would like to use to link to the page. If you highlighted a word on the page before you clicked the “Link” button, that word will already be in this field.


Click "OK".


How do I link to another website or URL?

Highlight a word or URL that you wish to use as the link.


Click the “Link” button in the toolbar.


In the “Page Type” dropdown menu select “URL”
Choose the proper protocol (http://, news://, etc).


In “Link Text” type the wording of the link that you would like to use to link to the page. If you highlighted a word on the page before you clicked the “Link” button, that should be in this field.


Click “OK”

Note: If you don’t highlight a word before clicking “Link”, the editor will insert the entire web address into the page as the link, as shown below.

Hi, we'd really really like to use folders. (We thought it was already part of the business upgrade, but alas, it's not). What's the ETA on this feature?

Also, we'd like to participate in the beta testing, if it's still relevant.

Lately a friend of mine made changes by mistake and deleted information from a wiki page, can I undo that without having to reedit manually?

I am very new to this technology. I have figured out how to link a word to another one of my wiki pages but can this be done automatically to make sure all possible links are formed? Thanks.

Is PBWiki accessible by people with disabilities?

I want students to be able to view without all of them needing to login and edit. Is this still possible? I can get on the Front Page of a wiki I created in January and not have to login. Is this change a new requirement or something I need to change in my settings or someplace?

Question from a teacher using PBwiki for a classroom: ...I saw the chat program at the bottom of page. I have some serious, serious, serious concerns about that program. The program itself sounds amazing! I would love for my students to have an inter-wiki live communication system. I think that's an amazing idea. The one on there is not acceptable, sadly. It's the friendfinder ad at the top right of the program.

I'm basically wondering if there's any way for me to create redirecting pages: i.e., If someone searches for 'Andras', I want them to end up at the page for 'Cor Layard' because they are the same person

I have about a 50 page public wiki that covers 2 topics. I would like to start a new wiki, move about half the pages into it, and make it a private wiki. Is there an easy way to copy pages from one wiki into another?

Hi,

Is it possible to have the sidebar be a bit lower to accommodate a graphic banner on the main page?

Thanks!

Business, education, individual... what's the pros and cons behind each wiki? What will work best for me?

I am using the wiki as a forum where my students can meet to construct a group project. I would like to know though how I can see whether they logged on and how long they stayed. Is this possible?

Can you copy and paste word documents containing images directly in to PBWiki? We have loads of documents and it will take forever if we have to save every image contained within them.
