Description

  • Some users are quite comfortable with using mediawiki syntax and find having to go to a full html input to be tedious or a barrier
  • As a test, try installing the pearwiki module that allows you to have it as an option to use wiki syntax

  • Using this module: http://drupal.org/project/pearwiki_filter
  • Download to modules folder, unzipped
  • As you can see in readme.txt - you need to acquire the php pear wiki libraries, which I downloaded into the module/pearwiki_filter/ folder as described
  • Followed the rest of the instructions without any problem
  • some testing of how it handles various things is still warranted, but it works
  • You must _manually_ select Input Format -> Wiki Syntax when creating/saving edits to a post to enable this feature
