Wiki syntax for page sections

Wiki syntax for page sections

Kanshu 21 Jun 2009 03:12

I can't seem to find any mention of "page sections" in the wiki syntax page. Is this related to page anchors?

Anyway, I want to be able to edit sections of a page. Wikipedia has articles with multiple "edit" links for sections of the page. (I'm still browsing at wikipedia about the page section, but so far I can't find the relevant page.) How do I implement this in wikidot?

Never mind. I found it under the "options" button.

Oops. "Edit sections" button says there is "no isolated sections". How do I set that up?

Edit sections is only available when you using Headings in your page… please try it first…

for more detail of live sample… go to your site that located at http://how2pedia.wikidot.com/ then press the edit sections link… this action will shows several edit link that float on every heading in the left-most of your current page…

I just found out a minute ago. But it is not a good assumption (on the part of the wiki programmers) to limit sections to those with headings only. Because the documents I'm posting are legal cases and laws, the look of the document will change dramatically.

Hmm. Maybe I'll try the resizing the header fonts to soften the new look. The bigger fonts are very distracting. Anyway, thanks.

Sure… you can resize it via custom CSS. Based on what you’re writing I think you already know how… if you don't, other admin or maybe I can help you out.

On second thought, maybe that's the way it should be. A section is a portion of document delimited by headings.

Hmm. Anyway, I'm still reformatting some trial documents (a law and legal case) to get the best look. Thanks again.
