Marketing

PmWiki entries at Wikipedia and WikiMatrix were updated.

Subversion changes to the core

Change log. You can get the latest, yet unpublished PmWiki code from Subversion or download as a ZIP archive.

• The documentation of the wiki variable $Author conflicts with the Subversion keyword $Author:...$ and was automatically transformed by Subversion. The next version works around this conflict, but in the documentation we need to write $Author : with an additional space before the colon.
• The documentation was updated, see below.

Documentation, Internationalization

The documentation was improved for Conditional Markup, explaining that protecting a page or a group with passwords is different and probably more secure than hiding parts of the page with conditionals.

The German documentation was updated. You can download it here.

The international documentation listing is now ordered alphabetically instead of reverse-chronologically.

Discussions
