HOWTO

Search for your page title: The easiest way to create a new page is to first search for the title you have in mind. If the page doesn't exist, you can create it.

Use the search bar: Type your desired page title into the search bar and press Enter.

Create the page: If the page doesn't exist, you'll see a “This topic does not exist yet” message. Click the “Create this page” button to open the editor.

To edit a page you are currently viewing, look for an “Edit this page” button or link. This will open the page in the editor, allowing you to make changes.

DokuWiki uses a simple markup language to format text. Here are some of the most common formatting options.

Bold and Italic:

For bold text, wrap it in double asterisks:

**text**

For italic text, wrap it in double slashes:

//text//

For underlined text, wrap it in double underscores:

__text__

Headlines: Use the equals sign = to create headlines. More equals signs create smaller headlines.

====== Large Heading ======

===== Medium Heading =====

==== Small Heading ====

Lists:

Unordered Lists: To create a bulleted list, indent your text with two spaces and use an asterisk * for each item.

Ordered Lists: To create a numbered list, indent your text with two spaces and use a hyphen - for each item.

Internal Links: To link to another page within the wiki, use double square brackets.

[[:playground:page_name|]]

will create a link to “page_name”.

[[:playground:page_name|link text]]

will create a link to “page_name” with the text “link text”.

External Links: To link to an external website, simply paste the full URL.

[[http://www.example.com|http://www.example.com]]

will create a link to that URL.

[[http://www.example.com|link text]]

will create a link with custom text.

Upload the image: Click the “Media Manager” button to upload your image file.

Embed the image: To embed an image into a page, use double curly braces.

[[:playground:image.jpg?id=playground%3Ahowto&media=playground:image.jpg|{{:playground:image.jpg|image.jpg}}]]

Once you are finished editing, you will see a “Save” button. Click this to save your changes. It's a good practice to also use the “Preview” button to see how your changes will look before saving.
