Integrating PBWiki into my current website
I would like to integrate my WIKI into my current website and use PBWIKI as a content manager tool that my office can edit. If they edit the WIKI, my website automatically updates. Is this possible?
I would like to have mutliple WIKI's in PBWIKI. For example: Company MIssion, Mailing Address, Blah. Blah. Blah, but all of this as a wiki in PBWIKI.

Inappropriate?Sounds like you only need one wiki, with separate pages for content like Mission, Address, etc. There is no publicly-available facility to integrate your wiki with your website, but you could contact sales if you're serious. Their creativity is limited only by the size of your checkbook. -
Inappropriate?You'll want to check with Tom for business applications, and you can do so by emailing tom[at]pbwiki[dot]com . That said, from a technical perspective, if you have PHP or some server side scripting from your site, the most stable way would be to use the API to pull pages from PBwiki, which are then output from your server. You can read more about the API at http://api.pbwiki.com

Inappropriate?There is no publicly-available facility to integrate your wiki with your website.
The 'wikilet' feature (only for 1.0 wikis, no support yet in 2.0) lets you extract the content of a wikipage in various ways. Do a search at The Daily Peanut, official blog of PBwiki for 'wikilet' to find the gory details ...
To start: put this code on your website
<script src="http://YOURWIKI.pbwiki.com/PAGETITLE?raw=js&width=0&height=0"></script>
all on 1 line, of course
Beware, to allow everyone to see the 'embedded' content your wiki needs to be public. In this case this might not be a good solution. You'll have to upgrade to protect your wikis content! -
Inappropriate?Thank you very much everyone for the quick responses. This will give me enough information to start.
Thanks again.

Inappropriate?I'm sorry as well, vangispen. I missed that entirely; if I had remembered it, I would have made a point of the fact that it doesn't work in 2.0 yet.
I feel sorry for people who use these things and upgrade to 2.0 without realizing how many things from 1.0 don't work.
I’m missing the easy ones
-
Inappropriate?Don't be sorry. Just trying to help .. and getting things right .. and emphasizing some of the shortcomings (at this time, maybe in the future?) of 2.0 : )
I’m feeling miserable that the 'wikilet' function is missing in 2.0 ..
-
Inappropriate?A little more help with be much appreciated.
Here is an example I found:
http://pbwikifanclub.pbwiki.com/Wilki...
This is my example:
http://fortunebuilders.pbwiki.com/Tha...
Both the same output: ?raw=bare.
The fanclub example works fine. But the fortunebuilders.pbwiki.com returns "Source of Than Bio" with a bunch of HTML code. I'm trying to embed this into my page.
What is the reason why the pbwikifanclub return a clean HTML page without headers/footers, but my example doesn't.
Is pbwikifanclub an older version of the Wiki?
Thanks..
Geoff

Inappropriate?"Is pbwikifanclub an older version of the Wiki?"
Exactly. It is an older version of PBwiki, with much more functionality than V2.0.
I have updated the V2.0 Missing Features Wiki to include Wikilets among the features missing from V2.0.

Inappropriate?Every 2.0 wiki is now default API v2 enabled, this enables you to use the wikilet function! The syntax is different for a 2.0 wiki (like fortunebuilders; pbwikifanclub is a 1.0).
Code for script method:
<script src="/api_v2/op/GetPage/page/YOURPAGE_TO_EMBED/_type/jsembed"></script>
Code for object method:
<object type="text/html" data="/api_v2/op/GetPage/page/YOURPAGE_TO_EMBED/_type/html" height="60" width="600"></object>
whereby YOURPAGE_TO_EMBED just another wikipage is.1 Comment Add a comment

Wow, and *I* catch hell from Get Satisfaction for using multiple logins to post here.
-
Inappropriate?Hey, "wikilet", where's the documentation for the API for 2.0?
I’m amused at the perceived need for alt logins by PBwiki staffers

Than-Bio is a nonexisting page @ your wiki ...
-
I renamed it, because I thought the space would cause a problem.
-
And is Lorem-Ipsum a non-existing page @ forumdemo.pbwiki.com?
-
Inappropriate?Yeah, here's a demo of the supposed "wikilet" functionality, as described by "wikilet". It dinna work.

it works ...
-
Sure, after you made some changes. Care to share?
-
I think I see. Even though PBwiki retardedly replaces the spaces with dashes in the page name, your "wikilet" requires the spaces to be there. I wish you guys would learn how to escape URLs properly and consistently.
-
I only changed your version once, I replaced the space with %20, that's just my standard way of typing urls ... the other changes were cosmetic, I added a comment that says: the embedded page is only visible for visitors who are signed in, that's all folks
-
updated demopage again: code rewrite to make embedded pages visible to readers ...
-
It documents itself...just go to: http://[YOURWIKI].pbwiki.com/api_v2/ All the info you need should be there.
