New MX/antiX Technical Documentation Wiki

[Jerry3904]

Your image shows the Wiki panel to the left and header above, currently not present when the Help link is clicked (the other image I attached).

This thread has become something that really belongs in the Development Forum, so some of the argument may not make much sense.

After some thought, on my part, I was able to understand better, ( I think),
Since the manual is "outside" of the wiki, that is why it appaers as it is, the "help" files you moved, into the wiki, actually still have the "menu" or "table of contents" on the left side. Any way, to me it looks pretty good so far.

Nope. The files are simply html files that we store currently in a directory on the mepiscommunity.org server. When I put them into the Wiki, they will be displayed within the frame of the Wiki, which we don't want to see.

I ran a test this morning, moving over a couple of MX Help files. The only problem is that if our links go there they will show the text and the frame (unless there is a way to get around that). See contrast below.

I still think we should have the Help files (and Licenses too, BTW) in there, just not yet sure we want to point to that for Help buttons.

Maybe this is not the problem I first imagined. What do people actually think of seeing the Wiki frame around the help file and associated license?

That is what I was trying to say, I liked that! : Of course, I don't know how others feel about it.
I thought you were saying the problem is, that the "Manual" did not have the frame,

they will be displayed within the frame of the Wiki, which we don't want to see.

Which leads to , if you don't want to see the frame, yes, that is more complicated, and deffinately "developement" perhaps knows a way around it, but I am not sure.
It would be interesting to see how others feel on that,

Will the links be static in that we can have an in iso document and this document setup in the mx / antix help windows?

No problem with the links.

The links are set up so that when someone creates a new page the website creates the url using mepiscommunity.org/wiki/[node:field_section]/[node:title]

If sometime in the future they needed to change for some reason, Drupal has a redirect module we could use so the old link would still take you to the correct location.

frame, Schmame. I like it because I can actually find stuff in it.
