Feature development for SimplyWiki 1.1 has been completed and it is now ready for beta testing! SimplyWiki has developed over the past few months, continuing on from Wiwimod, which was last released as a XOOPS module in 2005. This release includes the first new set of features for the module since that time. SimplyWiki (Wiwimod 0.83+) was released in November 2008 and only addressed existing functionality.
This version of SimplyWiki is compatible with XOOPS 2.0.x and 2.3.x, and ImpressCMS 1.0 and 1.1. Known issues are problems with PDF generation of special characters - that will be addressed in the next release with the use of an updated PDF class.
Some of the basic features available since SimplyWiki 1.0 -
- You can name the install directory any name you'd like (wiki, faqs, wiwimod, etc)
- It will work with WYSIWYG editors you have installed
- It supports multiple languages, even right-to-left languages
- Notifications for page additions and changes
- Support for tags, using the Tag module
