• List benefits here
• Media Uploads: Mentions that only registered users can upload images to the media manager.
• Subscription Services: Explains the ability to “Subscribe” to namespaces or pages to receive email notifications when changes occur.
• User Profile: Mentions the ability to track personal contributions via the “Recent Changes” or user profile link.

This is where more would be added like…

Search

Left Sidebar

Sitemap: Suggests including the “Sitemap” as a primary navigation tool for viewing the entire namespace hierarchy.

Right Sidebar

Toby Quick Help

• Toby Quick Help: Defines this tool more clearly. If it is an AI assistant or a specific plugin, the functional interaction should be described (e.g., “Accesses the automated assistance tool…”).

Namespaces and Folders

The location of files, which represent dokuwikil pages, use linking. In Dokuwiki, a Namespace is just another word for a Folder. So keep these thoughts in mind when deciding to refer to a specific wiki page or it's section:

• Structure: Namespaces are separated by a colon : instead of a slash \.
• Example: manual:installation:setup
  • manual = Top folder
  • installation = Sub-folder
  • setup = The actual page name
    • since all pages are in .txt format, adding an ext of .txt is not accepted

File Naming and Creation

Naming the Location / Pagename

A page needs a location (it's street) and pagename (it' address). When combined it becomes a namespace (it's home). Some visitors may be more familiar with Windows or Android naming conventions, so these will be used for a familiarity comparison to that used here in Dokuwiki.

File Creation

Registered users have a “permission level” to create new pages (not delete pages).

The established method to create a new page is to

• Locate the Search Bar (open it if on mobile)
• enter the desired pagesname (make the wiki search to make sure that location and pagename does not exist
  • If not found, the response will show the pagename in red
    • Click the red URL
    • A new page will open ready for text entry.

Case Sensitivity

• While DokuWiki converts pagenames to lowercase, the server system for uiTLM is case-sensitive:
  • Lower Case: All filenames for pages created, media, and internal/external links

Table of Contents for Pages

A Table of Contents (TOC) will automatically be created for a page long as it has least three Headings (the lines starting with at least 2 “='s= (==), DokuWiki will automatically generate a “Table of Contents” box at the top right of thepage.

• The TOC can be a drop-down or left extended while scrolling a page. To roll-up the TOC, just click Table of Contents banner.

Non-Destructive Editing

Don't be afraid to make mistakes! Dokuwiki and SprintDoc will remember any revisions if Save has been tapped.

• Old Revisions: Every time “Save” is clicked, DokuWiki keeps the old version. To go back click the “Old Revisions” icon on the right side of the editing window and select a previous, time-based, version from the list.
• Preview: Using the Preview button at the bottom of editing window before saving is a good way to see exactly how the page appears.
  • If it looks acceptable tap Save
  • or scroll up to the editing window to make more changes
  • Forgetting to Save will cause a notification to pop-up and ask
    • “Leave site? Changes to your page will not be saved”
    • Tap Cancel to return to the editing page (scrolling to the editing location may be necessary)
    • Or, to Not Save all changes since the last save, just tap OK.

A Supporting Note: DokuWiki is “Plain Text” first. Even if the formatting looks messy in the editor, the final page will look clean and professional!

Headings

Headings use equals signs '='. Use more for smaller sub-sections. Notice how the number of ”=“ decreases on both sides as the subheading becomes lower.

• ====== Page Title ======
• ===== Section Title =====
• ==== Sub-Section ====

Headings use equals signs `=`.

• The more equal signs used, the larger or higher the heading. The '=' must start on the left margin.

Formatting Text

• Bold: text
• Italic: text
• Underline: text
• Monospaced: text (Useful for file paths or variables)

Paragraphs and New Lines

DokuWiki handles “spacing” differently than a standard word processor.

• New Paragraph: Press Enter twice to leave a blank line. This is the best way to keep text readable.
• Forced New Line: If you want to drop to the next line without starting a new paragraph, type two backslashes followed by a space:


Lists

Building lists is all about the indentation and steps.

• For bullet point: Use two spaces from the left margin and an asterisk ”'* * For numbered list: Use two spaces from the left margin and a dash - * To create further indentation for either: add 2 more spaces to the previous indentation

  • First bullet item
  • Second bullet item
    • Indented sub-item (four spaces)

  1. First numbered item
  2. Second numbered item

  ==== Links ==== To link to another page, a section on the eisting or other page or a website, use opening and closing double square brackets around the pagename * Internal: <code>pagename</code> * Internal with custom name: <code> Clickable Text</code> * External: <code> Google</code> === Media === To display any media use opening and closing curly braces (wiki) * Images (PNG, jpg gif, webp) * Video (animated gifs mp41)), use curly braces. * All media on a page must be located in the medi namespace * Media for a page is to be located in page namespace for the media * Example: write about a fish and insert a fish.webp. The page is fish.tx * The fish lives in a “pond” (namespace/folder) * The link would be * filename.ext * — Displays the image at its original size. * — Displays the image at 50 pixels wide (resizing made easy). === Simple Tables === Tables are built using vertical bars | for (cells) and carets for ^'' (headers). Alignment can be specific for each cell or heading:

• To center contents leave 2 spaces between the beginning and ending cell or header marker,
• leave 1 space for left aligned entries.
