• View how syntax is used on this page.
• Then scroll below the horizontal line shown below (syntax in edit mode shows ----) and practice between the noted lines.
• Practice the wiki syntax. The system maintains a history of edit changes as explained below.
• Old Revisions: Every time “Save” is clicked, DokuWiki keeps the old version. To go back click the “Old Revisions” (clock 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. (look above the editing window for the preview window)
  • 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.
