Questions Is there some automatic way for PmWiki to create checkpoints (aka backup copies) of edits that are in progress?
Alternatively, is there some explicit way for users to save in-progress edits without having the save appear in the page history of list of recent changes? Screed (to be read only if you wish and/or your answers to my questions are "no") Some feature like this is important (imperative) to prevent significant loss of time and effort when something does wrong. The only information I've seen related to this problem for PmWiki seem to characterize it as a problem for "newbies". However, newbies are not the only ones who lose network connectivity, hit the wrong key by mistake, or haven't yet learned when PmWiki will inexplicably discard edits (e.g., when attaching a file to a page being edited). And even if they are, good software doesn't set booby traps. I may be a PmWiki newbie, but I have used (and created) several other Wikis in the past without getting killed anywhere near as often as I've been killed by PmWiki, which I started to use because it was the quickest way to get up and running for a new consulting engagement. However, I will be forced to abandon PmWiki and switch to one of its competitors if it continues to make me loose substantial amounts of time. _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users
