Default DIY Wiki - Now easier to use


For anyone who had been put off creating or updating articles on the
wiki by the need to understand the wiki markup language, fear no more!

Its now has the Visual Editor installed and running.

This gives you a much simplified way to edit text, create links, and
upload photos. If you can do basic editing in a word processor, then
this should all seem familiar.

Once logged in, you will now see that there are two edit links at the
top of the page, and on each editable section of an article. One called
"Edit", and another called "Edit Source".

When you click Edit now you will go to the new editor (it takes a moment
to load sometimes).

If you click the Edit Source link, you get the traditional wiki markup
editor.

There is a user guide he

(If this new fangled wyiwyg is all too much change for you, then nip
into your preferences, and you an elect to get the old editor by default!)

Cheers,

John.
