This guide explains how to set up, customize, and extend
wiki services.
Mac OS X Server includes wiki services, which allow you to set up personal and group
wikis, blogs, and web calendars.
The default wiki services conguration makes it easy for groups to collaborate and
communicate. Users can create and edit wiki pages, tag and cross-reference material,
upload les and images, add comments, and search content.
In addition to showing you how to set up wiki services, this guide shows you how to
customize and extend them to suit your needs. For example, you’ll learn how to:
Create custom themes Â
Enable JavaScript, YouTube, and Flash Â
Enable Quick Look for more le types Â
Automate migration from other sources, such as wikis and non-wiki websites Â
Customizing and extending wiki services requires administrator access and in some
cases programming skill. You must be able to edit les on the server, which aren’t
accessible to most users. Be careful when editing these les. An incorrect or untested
change could cause problems.
What’s New in Wiki Server
Users create and administrate their own wikis and blogs. Â After enabling wiki
services, users can create wikis and blogs. They can choose which wiki services to
enable, such as just the wiki and calendar, and they can choose who can access their
wiki services. Users can do these tasks within the wiki tools, so server administrators
don’t need to be involved.
Server administrators can restrict who is allowed to create wikis and blogs.
For more information, see Wiki Help or Wiki Tools Deployment Guide.
