[PHP] PHP wiki recommendations
Hi All, I want to add a wiki to my blog site to help create a knowledgebase of the characters, localities, stories I write to make it easier for new visitors to delve into the areas that interest them. I've been experimenting with a couple of different wiki packages, but am always interested in others' thoughts and recommendations. In particular, I've looked at MediaWiki and PmWiki. Of the two, I like MediaWiki's 'completeness', but it's also quite slow and doesn't strike me as being particularly (or easily?) customizable. PmWiki is probably my current candidate, but again I'd like to make sure I'm not missing a more obvious choice. My shopping list for the ideal wiki application is: - wiki entries preferably stored in MySQL tables. I'm not adamant about this (eg PmWiki uses files rather than a db backend), but it would suit my purposes better to be able to draw from the wiki tables from the front page of my blog to show lists of recently added and recently updated wiki entries - non-reliance on CamelCase wiki links. Many of my characters etc use joined CamelCase names (eg KillFork and DangerSpoon), and to avoid confusion I'd rather explicitly define links to wiki content - ability to categorize wiki entries - ability to compare history of wiki edits and easily reinstate older edits if wiki pages get 'graffiti'd' - ability to allow others to edit / create wiki entries, thru a user id / password system, so that regulars who would like to participate can do so - ability to customize presentation of wiki pages, presumably through CSS etc, so that I can maintain the 'look and feel' of my blog thru the wiki content - PHP based, though my host does run Perl, so if the killer wiki app is a Perl-based one, I'm sure I can muddle thru implementing it If anyone has any recommendations for other wiki applications I should look at before making a decision, I'd love to hear from you!

I personally just don't find myself going back to Wikis and forums and blogs very often. Many people thrive on them. Some folks say If you build it, they will come. Me, I think it's more along the lines of: If you build it, and maintain it, and expand it, and maintain it, and improve it, and maintain it, they will come. :-) -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] PHP Wiki recomendations
Could anyone recommend a good PHP-based Wiki script, for PHP 4.x? I've been testing a bunch of them and almost all seem to be crap so far.
