Learn how to create content in wikis and blogs.
Wikis and blogs are powerful tools because they allow many users to contribute
content. These tools have a simple yet full-featured toolbar that allows users of
all skills to create rich, dynamic pages. After pages are created, other readers can
add comments.
Creating Wiki Pages and Blog Posts
You can create wiki pages and blog posts using the same toolbar.
When creating wiki pages, be aware of whether you’re creating orphan pages or linked
pages. When possible, create linked pages because they are easier for users to navigate
to and find.
An orphan page is a wiki page that isn’t linked to from any other page. Because they’re
not linked to, the only way you can navigate to these pages is to search for them. Blog
entries that aren’t linked to from other pages aren’t considered orphan pages, because
when you view the blog, you can see all of its entries with the newest entry first.
To create an orphan wiki page:
1 While viewing a wiki page, click the Create Page (+) button in the toolbar.
2 Enter the name of the new page and click Create.
To create a linked wiki page:
1 While viewing a wiki page from which you want to link to a new page, click the
Edit (pencil) button in the toolbar.
2 Position the insertion point where you want the link to appear on the page.
3 Click the Create Link (curved arrow) button and choose New Page.
4 Enter the name of the new page and click Create.
5 Click “save.”
