1] Yes, it is possible. I thought it was actually the default. Once upon a time there was a page showing how to do several variations on that theme, complete with CleanURLs using .htaccess. I got a few variations working over hour or two, said, "Neat! Wow! That was easy!" then chose my favourite and forgot the rest. Summary of the half-dozen instruction pages: An index.php wrapper script goes in the top level of each field directory, e.g., public/index.php, just like before. But, since things have moved relative to each other, the sample wrapper script needs to be changed so that it still points to pmwiki.php. It is possible to make the initial URLs even nicer using the CleanURLs recipe(s). Fair warning, several things have to be changed all at the same time, and there are several variations depending on security requirements. 2] I'm fairly sure that's not yet available. Been requested a few times, though. Cheers! Sandy _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users
