Wiki hints and tips#This page provides various information to help authoring wiki content within the foundry. Whats here:
Linking without launching another browser instance#Linking to wiki pages should not require a new browser instance. Make sure not to use full URL and instead use the page name. It has been observed that the wiki sometimes takes a few minutes to make that link work... (don't ask why...) If the link does not work, wait a few minutes and refresh the page...Linking to any other URL seems to open a new browser instance. A question has been sent to Collab regarding this behaviour and we hope to get a workaround soon... When to use attachment over Documents section#Attachment should only be used to attach content solely required to help the rendering of the wiki page. e.g. imagesFiles that can be accessed outside of the scope of the wiki page, such as articles, should be in the project Documents section. Adding style to your wiki page#The wiki supports some of CSS tags. This allows you to control where information appears; color, font size, etc...The syntax is: <css-attribute-n> : <css-value-n> ;) text e.g. %%( color: red;)Text%% will output: Text Escaping wikitext#This wiki engine like to take c-function names like "ThreadDestroy()" and turn it into a link. While you can use triple curly braces to escape wiki test, the three open curlies force a newline, messing up your formatting. So:To get use wikitext ----------------------------------------------- DestroyThread() ~DestroyThread() __ker_exit() ~__ker_exit() [parameter] [[parameter] or ~[parameter] making links to source#It's a good idea to put a link to specific source files in our external source tree from any wikipage talking about specific software. Just:
Easy. Except that: The link you pasted will have parameters like: http:// ...?root=coreos_pub&rev=1233&system=exsy1001&view=markup The "&rev=1233" term will cause this link to always jump to that revision, even when it's been obsoleted by a newer one. To always point to the latest rev of a file, delete the "&rev=nnnn" term from the url. Deleting attachments#Normal wiki page; the ones accessible from the "WIKI" link on the left box, have a "Show Details" button on the bottom right. Click on the latter button. A tab control will appear; select the "attachments" tab, check the attachments to delete and hit the "remove" button on the bottom right. Project home wiki page are a little trickier since they do not include the "Show Details" button... You have to find the page from the wiki section. To do this, select "WIKI" link on the left box, hit the "Search Wiki Pages" link on the right. Enter "Home" in the "Search Text" field and hit the "Community Search" button on the bottom right. One of the results should be a page whose name is "Project Home Page", select the link to that page. The "Show Details" button should not be visible at the bottom. Follow the instructions above.
