Hello
We are the daimonin mmorpg project:
http://www.daimonin.net
We use phpWiki as our main documentation & information
central of our postnuke site. I have to say that we are
very happy with that solution and its a great success.
Thank you guys!
The only negative point is, that we can't use the original
phpWiki but a modified version which used the postnuke
user permission interface.
When you look at the site and you understand what we do you will
see how incredible useful the permission system is. We give access
to several parts of the website include site sub-admins, gallery
album owners, file system upload permission, forum permission,
forum moderator permission and at last write access to the wiki.
Thats only (and really only, our old website had it not, so we
know where we talk about) possible with one central permission and
group system which gave us the Postnuke CMS.
As a game (with much underage users), we need a stable & secure
permission system. A free wiki access is no option. In the old website
we had deleting and vandalism of pages every few hours.
With the new webpage, we had not a single issue.
When you look at the phpWiki of our site, you will notice how good it
fits in the CMS and how useful it is.
What i fear is, that someone find a exploit in the hacked phpWiki.
Its not active in development anymore and it has still issues.
Has the phpWiki community ever thought about to add a native postnuke
interface? Postnuke lakes a native wiki. It has a very easy to use
interface which allows it to bind in modules. Also, the changes would
be normally not so hard - just a redirect to the postnuke permission
system. Nearly all other parts from phpWiki fits in fine.
It would be a win/win solution for both projects. Postnuke would get
a stable, tested & working wiki. phpWiki would get a incredible boost
in users and, i can ensure it as a open source project leader for years now,
alot more developer.
Both project would gain ALOT for a little work.
They would stay independed as projects but would gain
through the Synergy effect of the interface both a big
boost.
