LionWiki 3.0
A minimalist Wiki engine programmed in PHP more>> A minimalist Wiki engine programmed in PHP
LionWiki is extensible, templatable, file based (it doesnt need database like MySQL) and requires just one file to function.
LionWiki is suitable for small websites, journals or personal notebooks.
Design principles:
- Dont use database. Database complicates installation and backuping
- Dont create any own metadata, on the other hand use filesystem metadata to maximum extent
- Keep things simple, stupid, both on source and user level.
- Include only basic features, everything else should be implemented in plugins
- Keep LionWiki usable from just one file
Main features:
- Feature set is purposely limited to maintain the biggest advantages over other Wiki engines - small size and simplicity to install and use.
- LionWiki provides essential Wiki functionality like Wiki syntax, page history, last changes, renaming pages, password protection (both read and write) etc.
System requirements:
- PHP enabled web server
Enhancements
- A new directory structure is used, which allows very easy installations no matter how many and which plugins you use. Mbstring conversion and history compression were dropped.
WysGui 2.2.2
This is a completely free and customizable CMS. more>>
Major Features:
- Lean, Fast, and Just Plain Easy-to-use!
- When Ease & Simplicity Matter - WysGui is a great example of this. There are ways to tell a server to save a simplified snapshot of a page for future access. If that was the only thing wysgui did, it would run almost as fast as the same thing without server-side code. However it's not the only thing. It also gets properly cached by the visitors browser, making it even faster! Studies show that web-sites which load faster are more likely to keep their users involved.
- WysGui is very easy to use. An eleven year old can get the hang of most things quite quickly.
- Content Management - A Blog? An Information Source? A Little Bit of Both?
- With WysGui, there's a WYSIWYG editor that will let you do just about any of those things- including uploading of images, flash, and other allowed file-types. No need for any coding or HTML knowledge there. Every strong CMS has this functionality as well- That's not what makes WysGui special.
- With WysGui, you have full control of the order in which your content displays. That allows you to order the articles any which way, with little effort and no coding knowledge.
- When it gets to the point where a piece of content can't handle it all, for example if Server-Side code or head tag data, is needed, then modules come in.
- Developer-Friendliness - Create Modules directly in WysGui
- No coding knowledge is needed to move around and organize modules. Just like content, it's mostly common sense.
- For the developers, WysGui makes it very easy to create a web-site quickly. It's been said, "If you've ever used a CMS and wished you could do more, WysGui is for you." That's because the versatility never ends with WysGui. It's a web-based system that can be accessed and managed through any computer with internet access. You don't need to be on a computer with Notepad++, Dreamweaver, Microsoft Word, and FTP software. You can manage your site's core functions and abilities directly through the Admin Panel. The code editor is color coded, and provides a syntax highlight for many different coding languages.
- The lack of dependencies of outside software for developers makes WysGui a very powerful tool, with allot of potential.
-
- Settings, which are declared before everything.
- Action, which is declared after settings, but before any mark-up.
- Head Data, which includes any JavaScript, CSS, or anything in the HEAD tags.
- Form/Content, which is the main display for the module. That's actually what gets sorted with the content.
- It may be hard to comprehend at first, but as far as web-sites go, with just these four sections, almost anything can be done.
- Theme Control - A Web Designers Paradise
- Themes are fully customizable with WysGui. They consist of templates and style-sheets. Each one can be edited directly in the admin panel. A theme can have multiple styles.
- An example of using this setup would be a theme with a set of different colors in the style-sheet. Or maybe a theme with different parent organization on the template. If you have 2 templates, and 5 different style-sheets, that equals 10 options for skins.
- Some HTML and CSS knowledge is required to manage themes in WysGui, though is not required to attach a theme to a page.
- Themes are fully customizable with WysGui. They consist of templates and style-sheets. Each one can be edited directly in the admin panel. A theme can have multiple styles.
- File Management
- WysGui has a strong back-end. The Brain of the operation, and everything else is accessible through the site tree. The Site tree is basically an icon powered site-map. It's designed in a file/folder type structure. It shows you first all of your main data-powered pages, and in the second section is shows all of the files & folders starting at your site root.
- You can navigate through folders, files, and images. When a file is selected, a text editor pops up allowing you to edit your files. Now, for videos and images it's kind of weird seeing all those weird characters, and nobody can go through and edit that. The purpose of that functionality is to allow admins to go through and have full control of data files. The engines running the site are also accessible, and virtually anything can be edited this way, but as mentioned before, images and video and such formats need to be edited with the proper tools on a local computer.

- The Conclusion - All-and-all, it's a pretty strong system.
- Though there are other Content Management Systems that cover a vast variety of other tools, communities, and structure, WysGui should stick out to be a good competitor. Though it's smaller, has allot less features, and doesn't have a wide variety of people developing software for it, it does have allot to offer, and if given the chance of having a community, could explode into a widely used system.

Enhancements: 4-13-09
- Updated security patch opened by the demo installation. Now it uses less bandwidth!
- WysGui Wiki created
Ikiwiki 3.10
A free and open source wiki compiler more>>
Major Features:
- Uses a real RCS:
- Rather than implement its own system for storing page histories etc, ikiwiki uses a real Revision Control System. This isn't (just) because we're lazy, it's because a real RCS is a good thing to have, and there are advantages to using one that are not possible with a standard wiki.
- Instead of editing pages in a stupid web form, you can use vim and commit changes via Subversion, git, or any of a number of other Revision Control Systems.
- ikiwiki can be run from a post-commit hook to update your wiki immediately whenever you commit a change using the RCS.
- Note that ikiwiki does not require a RCS to function. If you want to run a simple wiki without page history, it can do that too.
- A wiki compiler:
- ikiwiki is a wiki compiler; it builds a static website for your wiki, and updates it as pages are edited. It is fast and smart about updating a wiki, it only builds pages that have changed (and tracks things like creation of new pages and links that can indirectly cause a page to need a rebuild)
- Supports many markup languages:
- By default, pages in the wiki are written using the MarkDown format. Any page with a filename ending in ".mdwn" is converted from markdown to html by ikiwiki. Markdown understands text formatted as it would be in an email, and is quite smart about converting it to html. The only additional markup provided by ikiwiki on top of regular markdown is the WikiLink and the directive.
- If you prefer to use some other markup language, ikiwiki allows others to easily be added by plugins. For example it also supports traditional WikiText formatted pages, pages written as pure HTML, or pages written in reStructuredText or Textile.
- ikiwiki also supports files of any other type, including plain text, images, etc. These are not converted to wiki pages, they are just copied unchanged by ikiwiki as it builds your wiki. So you can check in an image, program, or other special file and link to it from your wiki pages.
- Blogging:
- You can turn any page in the wiki into a blog. Pages matching a specified PageSpec will be displayed as a weblog within the blog page. And RSS or Atom feeds can be generated to follow the blog.
- Ikiwiki's own TODO, news, and plugins pages are good examples of some of the flexible ways that this can be used. There is also an example blog set up that you can copy into your own wiki.
- Ikiwiki can also aggregate external blogs, feeding them into the wiki. This can be used to create a Planet type site that aggregates interesting feeds.
- You can also mix blogging with podcasting by dropping audio files where they will be picked up like blog posts. This will work for any files that you would care to syndicate.
- Valid html and css:
- ikiwiki aims to produce valid XHTML 1.0. ikiwiki generates html using templates, and uses css, so you can change the look and layout of all pages in any way you would like.
- Plugins:
- Plugins can be used to add additional features to ikiwiki. The interface is quite flexible, allowing plugins to implement additional markup languages, register directives, provide a RCS backend, hook into CGI mode, and much more. Most of ikiwiki's features are actually provided by plugins.
- The standard language for ikiwiki plugins is perl, but ikiwiki also supports external plugins: Standalone programs that can be written in any language and communicate with ikiwiki using XML RPC.
- utf8:
- After rather a lot of fiddling, we think that ikiwiki correctly and fully supports utf8 everywhere.
- Other features:
- Tags: You can tag pages and use these tags in various ways. Tags will show up in the ways you'd expect, like at the bottom of pages, in blogs, and in RSS and Atom feeds.
- SubPages: Arbitrarily deep hierarchies of pages with fairly simple and useful LinkingRules
- BackLinks: Automatically included on pages. Rather faster than eg MoinMoin and always there to help with navigation.
- Smart merging and conflict resolution in your web browser
- Editing pages in a web browser: Nearly the definition of a wiki, although perhaps ikiwiki challenges how much of that web gunk a wiki really needs. These features are optional and can be enabled by enabling CGI and a Revision Control System.
- User registration: Can optionally be configured to allow only registered users to edit pages.
- Discussion pages: Thanks to subpages, every page can easily and automatically have a /Discussion subpage. By default, these links are included in the templates for each page
- Edit controls: Wiki admins can lock pages so that only other admins can edit them. Or a wiki can be set up to allow anyone to edit Discussion pages, but only registered users to edit other pages. These are just two possibilities, since page edit controls can be changed via plugins.
Foswiki 1.0.5
A wiki software, supporting the editing of web pages in an ordinary web browser, by end users more>> A wiki software, supporting the editing of web pages in an ordinary web browser, by end users
Foswiki is an enterprise collaboration and information sharing tool targeted for professional use in many types of companies: from small businesses to large organizations.
What makes Foswiki special is that it supports the embedding of active and passive macros that enhance the page content (e.g., with global and/or dynamic information) and allow end-users to build applications that store and process data in a structured manner.
Foswiki is a wiki: fundamentally, a website with editable web pages. Foswiki looks like a normal web site but it encourages contributions, questions, edits, updates, and answers from its users.
Foswikis a powerful way of enabling a community to communicate asynchronously using intranet and public internet websites. Foswiki is simple to learn and use.
Foswiki aims to provide a transparent way for you to publish and exchange your ideas with others over the web and eliminates the one-webmaster syndrome of outdated intranet content.
Foswiki is a structured wiki with tools that enable users without programming skills to build powerful yet simple applications to process information and support workflows. Developers can extend the functionality of Foswiki with plugins.
Enhancements
- Bug fixing was continued.
MediaWiki 1.13.2
Collaborative editing software that runs Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, and other projects more>> Collaborative editing software that runs Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, and other projects
MediaWiki is an extremely powerful, scaleable software and a feature-rich wiki implementation, that uses PHP to process and display data stored in its MySQL database.
MediaWiki is designed to handle a large number of users and pages without imposing too rigid a structure or workflow. It is licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL).
Pages use MediaWikis wikitext format, so that users without knowledge of XHTML or CSS can edit them easily.
When a user submits an edit to a page, MediaWiki writes it to the database, but without deleting the previous versions of the page, thus allowing easy reverts in case of vandalism or spamming.
MediaWiki can manage image and multimedia files, too, which are stored in the filesystem. For large wikis with lots of users, MediaWiki supports caching and can be easily coupled with Squid proxy server software.
System requirements:
- PHP 5 (5.1 recommended). PHP 4 is no longer supported.
- MySQL 3.23.x is no longer supported; some older hosts may need to upgrade. At this time we still recommend 4.0, but 4.1/5.0 will work fine in most cases.
- Apache
Enhancements:
- This is a bugfix release of the Summer 2008 snapshot release of MediaWiki.
- MediaWiki is now using a "continuous integration" development model with
- quarterly snapshot releases. The latest development code is always kept
- "ready to run", and in fact runs our own sites on Wikipedia.
- Release branches will continue to receive security updates for about a year
- from first release, but nonessential bugfixes and feature developments
- will be made on the development trunk and appear in the next quarterly release.
- Those wishing to use the latest code instead of a branch release can obtain
- it from source control: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download_from_SVN
