Hi All,

I'm new to wikis and have installed the DokuWiki module. For now I just want my XOOPS site admins to testdrive it, so after installing I went into the the admin control panel into Wiki -> Permissions and checked the "All" box for the Admin group, then clicked Submit.

Then I went back to the front page of my site and clicked on the DokuWiki link in the Main Menu. This took me to the "Start" page for the module:

"Start
You are here: start
DokuWiki for XOOPS..." etc.

I don't really know how to go about starting to create pages from here. If I click on the "Show Page Source" button at the bottom of this Start page, I see the message: "This page is read only. You can view the source, but not change it. Ask your administrator if you think this is wrong."

Why don't I have permissions to edit this page after having given the Admin group full permissions in the Module control panel? How do I get a new page going? Are there any file permissions or config file edits that I have to do after installing the module?

Thanks,

All this info and much much more available here: www.dokuwiki.org

[edited spelling]

All I see there is a "link" to Zmplicity.com. It doesn't look like the site is still active.

Thanks,

because the link should be: www.dokuwiki.org, with "k" instead of "c"

oops

Thanks,

I guess what I find a bit confusing is that the page linked above is talking about DokuWiki as a stand-alone installation rather than as a XOOPS module. So the installation process is different, for example. What I'm not clear about is where to start with the documentation after I've installed the XOOPS module.

For example, should I start here at the ACL:
http://www.dokuwiki.org/acl

or at the file permissions:
http://www.dokuwiki.org/install:permissions

I don't understand how DokuWiki permissions work as a XOOPS module. I assume that it must have to somehow use XOOPS accounts, but if I have no permissions to write a page as a XOOPS admin...

I notice that after the module installation,
modules/dokuwiki/conf/users.auth.php and
modules/dokuwiki/conf/acl.auth.php don't exist, only
modules/dokuwiki/conf/users.auth.php.dist

Do I use that last one as a template to create the other two? Where is the documentation that talks about this?

Thanks,
