WordPress Wiki Plugin

After a brief hiatus, WordPress Wiki is back! You will note that there are some blog posts missing. Please excuse their absence.

Terribly sorry for the inconvenience. We will be handling the backlog of support requests shortly.

Fixed a few remaining errors from the last release. This should solve any “stream errors” or failed include errors you might have been getting. The pages-to-wiki function was also improved.

This release is confirmed to fix the “has_cap” error on the settings page.

If there are no more bug reports I’ll go ahead and make this live.

Hi everybody. I took the initial feedback and we should be ready to push out version 1.0.1.

Changes:

• The Table of Contents error is now fixed
• The plugin now supports RTL languages
• The “pages to Wiki” feature has been improved significantly
• The fatal error on the settings page should be fixed now

, please, and if it works we’ll make it live right away.

Thanks again!

Hi all. Bug reports, improvements and feature requests are rolling in for WP-Wiki 1.0. Here’s a quick summary:

IMPROVEMENTS

• Multi-language support. We’re working on integrating WordPress Wiki with some available multi-language plugins, and on Github has contributed an RTL stylesheet.
• Better theming support. The stylesheet is easy to get to, as well as the markup for the front-end editor, but we’ll be making this even easier shortly.

KNOWN BUGS

• Several of you have reported getting a fatal error in the admin screen. I’m looking in to this.
• The checkbox in the admin interface for the Table of Contents is broken. This is a simple fix and should be pushed out in a day or so.

To keep things simple, until we have a forum working on this site, please report all future bugs at the or at the WordPress.org support forum.

Thanks for all your help and support! Expect version 1.0.1 early next week.

UPDATE

WordPress Wiki 1.0 is now available through the WordPress plugin repository, or through the built-in plugin installer in WordPress!

It’s finally here!

Some of you may be scratching your heads, since we’ve been calling this release 0.9 all along. We decided to call this one 1.0 because of the significant changes made by converting the plugin to Object Oriented/MVC design and putting all the widgets back in.

Plus, 1.0 just feels better .

Download from GitHub for now- the plugin will be available in the WordPress plugin repository shortly.

Work is very close to finished on overhauling WordPress Wiki to make it more modular, easier to maintain, easier to modify, and easier to add new features.

The latest version uses object-oriented design to make the plugin easier to understand. Each chunk of functionality is separated into a module called a Controller, and you can easily add new modules without messing with the rest of the plugin.

In addition, the new release separates plugin logic from the actual html output, called “Views”. Currently you can modify the RSS feed and options page views. More are coming soon.

This should work as a drop-in replacement for WordPress Wiki RC1. If you’re using RC 1, please upgrade this version and test.

A couple remaining bugs were fixed in 0.9 RC1, including a problem with processing the wiki syntax for text emphasis. I don’t feel like bumping the version number .

In other news, there’s another branch of the plugin available marked “mvc” at the Github site. This version of the plugin doesn’t change the way anything works, but organizes the code using object oriented design and the MVC pattern. We may release this version as 0.9 or 1.0- we’re still working that out.

If you want to take a look, go to the , click on “switch branches”, and choose “MVC”.

Please keep testing and reporting bugs! And thanks for all your support.

Howdy folks! WordPress Wiki 0.9 is FINALLY at release candidate status!

All the bugs that could be fixed have been taken care of. Some of them are unfortunately due to WordPress, not us, so you won’t be able to use wp_list_pages() to show a list of Wiki pages.

The good news is that this has been fixed in WordPress 3.1! Keeping up to date has many benefits.

Big ups to everyone who reported bugs, and especially to Github users and who contributed patches which have been included in this release.

You can Let us know if you find any remaining bugs!

Once we work out all the kinks, we’ll release the full, public, production-ready version of WordPress Wiki and start preparing for the next version.

Here’s everything that’s new in this version:

• Custom post types for Wiki Pages for WordPress 3.0+
• Custom permission set for Wiki Pages in WordPress 3.0+
• Front-end editing with Wiki syntax or XHTML formatting
• Wikipedia-style internal and external links
• Make any existing page into a Wiki Page (not posts yet)

We did remove the admin and front end widgets– we’ll put them back in the next version.

We’re not going to add any more features to this version. Any new feature requests will have to go into the next one. Nearly all of the bugs from the comments have been worked out- please let me know at the bug tracker if it’s still broken.

Please help us squash all the bugs! And thanks for your patience.
