CHANGES MADE

  1. upgraded from v2.1.beta 21 to v2.2.0.beta31
  2. changed wiki title and added logo
  3. switched from residing off the root in \pmwiki to starting in the root folder

  5. edited config.php to Enable Path Info, and added Auto Create Categories
  6. added PmWiki version # to Main. page
  7. moved the pmwiki application folder up a level on the server - so everything is off the root. Also switched to URL's rather than the database query format.
  8. SKIN CHG Triad skin The author is an active developer with 3 skins and several PmWiki add-ons. Before decision is made look again at Gemini and fix Flow to discover differences. FixFlow - seems to have the benefit of a fixed left menu column (my standard use of tables!), a right column which is available as needed and disappears when not required. Also maybe check/compare the Grease skin which is currently updated. (Decision = FixFlow)
  9. added Quote of the day functionality

CHANGES MADE 1/1/2010

Objective is to incorporate SEO enhancements. First, change the page title for every page in the wiki by removing the name of the wiki ($WikiTitle) and the name of the wiki group ($Group). Leaving on the page title ($Title) and the additional page actions info ($ActionTitle). Completed by editing the the default title structure in the template file (pub/skins/pmwiki/pmwiki.tmpl).

  • Original: <title>$WikiTitle | Main / ActionList $ActionTitle</title>
  • Changed to: <title>$ActionList $ActionTitle</title>

But because The site is using the fixflow skin, had to dig deeper to find the fix in the PHP files:

  • Original line in skin.php (/pub/skins/fixflow):
   SDV($HTMLTitleFmt, "$WikiTitle - $grouptitle - $title");
  • Changed to:
   SDV($HTMLTitleFmt, "$title");
