Hi Robert >>I do wonder if with having a new and more powerful wiki would open the >>door to better community content and hopefully... documentation. I'm >>wondering whether we can push much of the documentation onto the wiki >>and then have the main website act as a place holder for >>downloads/gallery and as gateway to forum/mailing list/wiki.
I do like the idea of a using the wiki for all tutorials and documentation, having a simpler system will make users more inclined to contribute and correct information. Then as you say, the main site can be a more polished portal for downloads, forum, release news etc. Joomla should help make this quite easy to keep updated from what I've been reading. >>Having a wiki with it's log in user account, and potentially CMS like >>Joomla with it's own user accounts, and the forum and mailing list >>both with their own user accounts will be rather messy. So I wonder >>if it might be possible to have just one account on the main site and >>then have options for enabling wiki/forum/mailing list activation. >>Is this possible? Linking of all the accounts sounds like a good feature too. I found these regarding MediaWiki, Joomla and phpBB http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:AuthJoomla http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:PHPBB/Users_Integration They seem to show it's doable but will probably require some work. I'll keep reading up on this stuff, and think about layouts etc. Cheers Tom
