is a bit scattered

? ? ?
What are you missing?

Go to the http://community.wikidot.com/start and you will get an overview where you will find all the snippets found by users, the "official" documentation you realy need and the howto's of the community.

At the end of this page on the right botttom you will see a lot of links…

Edit
I see you are a more experienced user now on your profil.. but the question is the same:

What should be done better?

thats nice and all but a lot of the documentation and useful information is a bit scattered.

Do you use "parenting" ?

Not the links are building a site-map!

Every page you want to show up in the site map needs a "parent" -structure upwards till the "root".

This is not necessarily the start page - you can have more "page trees" on a site… perhaps someone inside as category - or other way round only the start-pages of a category connected up to a parent-page - to show in a site map the "structure" of your site and not the single entry pages of a "blog" or "news" category…

Necessary is the "parenting" ( set up at the bottom of the pages in the +"options" —> "parent" for every page.

This gives you automatically the "breadcrumb navigation" too.

I see this too. I think the problem is that my start page just has text. i.e. no links.
All my links are in the side bar. I tried putting nav:side as the root but that doesn't seem to work either.
How can I set the root to the entire site ??

Parent Setting on subordinate pages

Thu, 07 May 2009 18:04:31 +0000

I agree with Alan about the lack of applicable documentation for this feature, but I guess that's the purpose behind the forum. After some fiddling around, I found this feature relatively easy to use. Instead of using it throughout the site, however, I started it in one sub-section (KnowledgeBase, for example) and implemented the sitemap throughout the subordinate pages below KnowledgeBase. For each sub-section page, I simply added the name of the "parent" page ("KnowledgeBase") under +options | parent.

Parent-setting needs to be documented better

It took me about an hour hunting around the wikidot documentation to discover something as simple and basic as how to set a page's parent, i.e. that I have to use + options etc. etc. It's as if the writers of the beginners' manual just forgot that people need to know that! It is hidden away in there somewhere but not in any obvious place. Please improve that aspect of the documentation for future users!

See a simple (and nice) map in action here:

breadcrumb

Tue, 08 Jul 2008 08:22:15 +0000

is there a way to change the breadcrumb navigation display using css?

thx!

you have to establish a parenthood relationship between a page and the page start by pressing the +options buttons and then the parent button :)

Still not working :-(

I would *love* to see something like this, perhaps in a template or something. or at least a shortcut for setting parents. as is, its waaay too slow, essentially manually curating a sitemap

hi.the first time

it doesn't worked...

Mon, 31 Mar 2008 17:10:10 +0000

just show "Welcome to your new Wikidot site" :-(

Re: Setting showRoot="false" does not work

Sun, 20 Jan 2008 09:31:10 +0000

Not exactly sure what the solution to that is, but I do know that showRoot must be set to "true", i.e. if you do not wish to have it set to true, do not include it at all. Try that, and see if it fixes your problem.

[[module PageTree root="wow" depth="30"]]

do you know if there is a way to automatically set the parents for pages created with a "new page" module on a particular page?

Setting showRoot="false" does not work

Mon, 31 Dec 2007 01:51:06 +0000

This is very useful! One small thing, though:

I am using the following settings:

[[module PageTree root="wow" showRoot="false" depth="30"]]

This still shows the "wow" page as the root of the tree. I'd prefer that it hide it and show only the children and their children.

tks but.....

Changing the parent of existing pages

Tue, 07 Aug 2007 15:17:35 +0000

Good to know that you can change the parent of existing (or new) pages by clicking on the +options button (lower right).

Set the parent of your current page to something that makes sense, i.e. "start".
