Wiki Notation

Salvete!

When I was blogging five minutes ago, something came to my mind:

How about implementing the possibility of a Wiki-like notation? In fact I wanted to do a list and started each line with an asterisk just to realize that this works in the wikipedia but not in my blog :wink:

What do you think about this?

The code can probably be taken by a popular GPLed Wiki software (e.g. PHPWiki). Don't know - is it possible to wrap the functionality into a plugin or would we have to include it in the main branch?

However - just a thought ;)

Hi!

Look at the serendipity_event_textwiki markup event plugin (we have that since about 4 months). It should work with that notation, at least some users are using it without problems. :)

*ahem* I should really have taken a look at it before posting :roll: (just searching the forum obviously wasn't sufficient)

Thanks! ;)

*but*....


how can I change this now? If I enable it, any (and I *mean* any) previous entry is totally "f***ed up" ;)

There's no possibility to enable it "per entry", is there? :? (I don't want to rewrite my whole blog in wiki style :roll: )

You're right, it screws up older entries.

Look at http://www.schlitt.info/applications/bl ... l#extended for a hack to get around that
