Welcome to Wikka
Hi, and welcome to WikkaWiki!
This server is meant for discussing issues related to the development and documentation of Wikka. It is neither meant to host personal pages nor to offer users a free space to post content, text, images or links not related to WikkaWiki. Most importantly, it is not a place where you can promote your own sites (with the exception of Wikka-powered sites - see below). Any abuse/vandalism will be removed and the user banned from this server.
Registered user privileges
As a registered user, you have access to a number of features, including writing and modifying page content, where writing is ACLInfo restricted to registered users. To start with, you might want to:
- Introduce yourself
Click on the link with your username at the top of this page to create your personal userpage. In your userpage, you can add information about yourself, how you work with Wikka and/or what you're planning / considering to do with it. You are free to add a link to your personal website and to websites you own (or collaborate to) running on Wikka. You don't necessarily need to have a Wikka site or to be a Wikka user to create a personal userpage on this server: just tell us how and why you came to this site and share your impressions of WikkaWiki.
Your personal userpage is not for playing around or testing Wikka formatting rules: that's what the SandBox is for (see below)! "Play pages" will be removed after a reasonable time, but you're allowed to come back and create a real userpage. And you don't have to create a userpage; you can contribute as a registered user on this site without having one though a little information about yourself and your (intended) use of Wikka will be appreciated.
- Set your preferences
You can store your UserSettings personal settings on this server to customize the way the site looks and behaves when you are logged in.
- Create your own skin
On this server, you can select a TestSkin skin (or "theme") from a list of available stylesheets. You can also create and store your custom skin (CSS) through an online editor.
Try it out
You can take a look at the FormattingRules to learn the basic functioning of this WikiEngine wiki. You are free to look around and play in the SandBox. Please note that the SandBox is not indexed by search-engines and is regularly reset. Links intendend to the promotion of external sites are not allowed and will be removed from the SandBox.
Some WikkaGuidedTours visual tours will introduce you to the basics of Wikka. You will find further information in the WikkaDocumentation official documentation.
