ditto! That sounds incredibly useful!

Just want to say that this sounds great!

By the way, we have this feature request filed as ticket #581

The auto-save is indeed nice, but really, a "save draft" button (That's probably preferable to a "save, publish, and continue" button) would let me know that I've locked my latest edits in whatever happens next.

This is an area I struggle with... When they rolled out the "sell access to your wiki" this worked great for me because I could set a small amount that everyone had to contribute in order to keep the wiki going. This beta feature ended suddenly and I haven't gotten much money since.

I use a "donate to PayPal" button on my wiki but it doesn't get much use.

I think PBWiki needs to recognize that non-businesses need the premium features and some need a way to collect "dues" from users. I'll probably let my subscription run to the end of the year and then look at moving away. Google just launched their "Sites" product (I guess wiki is a dirty word around Google) which might be an interesting competitor.

I still like the idea of getting user donations... that would be awesome. They could donate until the due date and if you go over the limit it could perhaps go to the next due date. If not than I will pay the difference not that I don't plan on paying at all I'd put in a certain amount at the beginning anyway. There should be a meter also showing how much more is needed. This will especially be useful for non profit sites who wants to update!

Hi there! If you have an annual plan, you can see how much time is left here: wikiname.pbwiki.com/extend.php

(replace wikiname with your real wiki name)

You can also extend your plan right there. Note that PayPal plans are billed differently and don't work with extend.php.

There is an auto-save function, yes, but I know I like to save it manually every now and then, just for my own peace of mind. I'll also be mentioning the idea above as a feature request.

i thought pbwiki saved your pages automatically for you ever 4 minutes or so, or am I mistaken?

Once you have pasted the code and changed all the stuff you want to change you can save the page and see the menu. To make the "fly-out" parts link just open the page in edit mode again and you will see your menu with out any of the styling. When you see that you can just highlight and link the text that needs to be linked the same way you would make any links in your wiki.

Can you elaborate a little further? I'm not sure I understand what you mean.

david replied on February 26, 2008 15:42 to the idea "SideBar as a dropdown menu or tab" in PBwiki:

Thanks, newbie, I pasted the code into a sample page and it worked great. But how do you make the items into links, where do we insert the url to link to various pages.

Hi Whispers- this is the only way :)

Paul it sounds like there is another way?
