Editing a Wiki Page in ScrewTurn Wiki is really simple. You can insert WikiMarkup, standard XHTML or use the integrated Format Helper Toolbar. In all the cases, you can format the text and insert links, images and many other items in a simple and quick fashion.
WikiMarkup
The WikiMarkup is a particular set of prefixes and suffixes that allow to format the text and insert items, such as links and images. In this section you'll learn how to use the WikiMarkup.
Basic Text Formatting
- Writing '''bold''' produces bold.
- Writing ''italic'' produces italic.
- Writing __underlined__ produces underlined.
- Writing --striked-- produces
striked. - You can use any combination, for example --striked '' '''bold''' and italic''-- produces
striked bold and italic.
Links
Links are identified with [ and ].
Note: since version 1.0.10, links also work with 2 brackets, for example
Link.
- To insert a link to an internal page just write [PageName], that produces PageName (if the linked Page doesn't exist, the link will have a different color).
- You can add a title to the link: [PageName|This is a Link] produces This is a Link.
- Email links are detected automatically, for example [mail@server.com] produces mail@server.com.
- Obviously you can add a title: [mail@server.com|Contact us] becomes Contact us.
- External links are marked with a special icon: [http://www.screwturn.eu] produces http://www.screwturn.eu.
- You can link to an internal file or subdirectory: [blog/|Blog] produces Blog and [GPL.txt|GPL] produces GPL.
- You can link to a Windows Share Drive: [file://///server_name/shared_directory/shared_file.txt|This links to shared directory] produces: This links to shared directory.
- If you add a ^ sign to the URL, the link will open in a new browser window, for example [^MyPage].
- You can use Anchors in your page links: [PageName#Anchor|This is a Link with an anchor] produces This is a Link with an anchor.
- You can upload files using the File Management interface.
Notes
Links and Images share the same general syntax, but the number of fields changes.
Categories
You can link a Category by using the following syntax:
<nowiki>[c:CategoryName]</nowiki>
For example, you can link the Help category or all the uncategorized Pages ([c:-|uncategorized Pages]).
Page Attachments
You can
attach a file to a Page using the following syntax:
[attachment:File.jpg]
Attachment are listed at the bottom of the Page. Please note that this function is still quite "raw", and the attached files are not real attachments, but just links to some
uploaded files.
Headings
You can create headings using a sequence of equal (
=) signs:
==Biggest Heading (H1)=====Big Heading (H2)=======Small Heading (H3)=========Smallest Heading (H4)=====- The first 3 Headings work as separators, the latter is only a small heading (use it sparingly)
- H1 is not recommended because it's used for the Page Title and therefore may cause confusion
Note: headings must be placed at the beginning of lines.
Horizontal Line
You can place a horizontal line using four hyphens
----.
