Edit wiki pages
If you want to edit wiki pages in a web browser, you can do this on your website at http://website/edit/wiki/
. If you want to edit wiki pages on your computer, have a look inside your content/2-wiki
folder. Give it a try. Open the file content/2-wiki/wiki-example.md
. At the top of the page you can change Title
and other page settings. Below you can change text and images. Here's an example
Title: Wiki example page
Layout: wiki
Tag: Example
This is an example page.
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod
tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna pizza. Ut enim ad minim veniam,
quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo.
To create a new wiki page, add a new file to the wiki folder. Set Title
and more settings at the top of a page. You can use Tag
to group similar pages together. Here's another example
