Options: Current Wiki settings

This page lists all the possible (current) wiki settings; they can be found in the main menu as: Wiki / Options / Current wiki [1].

Top
[1] The page has been assembled using page inserts; it's contents can only be seen in preview.

Wiki control

First word at startup
Wiki word which should be shown as first one each time the wiki is opened. If the field is empty, the last words when the wiki was closed is shown on opening.

Read only wiki
This option controls if a wiki can be changed or only can be opened as "read only".

Wiki icon
Set here the name of icon to use in the system tray instead of the default icon. If the field is empty the default icon is used. The icon of the main window is not influenced by this setting (because it does not work).

Wiki-bound hotkey
Wiki-bound hotkey to show/hide wiki. See OptionsDialog#App-bound# hotkey

Tree

Force ScratchPad visibility in tree
Shows the special page ScratchPad always as child of the tree root, even if it is not really a child.

Remember expanded tree nodes
Control if expanded tree nodes should be remembered by WikidPad. This means if you collapse a tree node which contains expanded child nodes yet and expand the node later, the child nodes are expanded again. The following modes are supported: It may happen that the mechanism stores expanded nodes which don't exist any longer, e.g. if the link from parent page to a child page is deleted and the child page was represented by an expanded node this is not always recognized by WikidPad, so some "garbage" may be stored.

By setting the option to "Not at all" then closing the options dialog, then setting the option back to what you had before, all node state information is cleared. The info of the main tree (not the "Views" tree) is also cleared when setting a new root.

Footnotes

Footnotes as wiki words
There are applications possible where there is a need for numeric page links. Under normal circumstances this can't be done, since numeric links are reserved for footnotes. The option "Footnotes as wiki words" allows to use numbers as page links. Setting that to true, dóes however mean, that footnotes can't be used anymore.

Export

Default export dir.
Set the default export directory into which exports should go.

Top

Log window

Auto-show log window
Automatically show log window if new error messages arrive. If the check-box is gray, the application level setting "Auto-show log window" is used, otherwise this wiki level setting overrules it.

Top

Page titles

Title prefix
Control the heading level of the initial main title of new pages. See PagePageTitles

Wikiword to title
How should the main title of new pages be generated from the wikiword. See PagePageTitles

Use link title if present
Specifies if the link title will be used as title of the page. See PagePageTitles
