    Wiki?

    What about wiki pages?

    I've posted howto's in the past on forums and wiki's and the wiki version always ends up 'better' because of other peoples contributions to them.

    Well you could host something like mediawiki on a subdomain instead...

    From what I can see a Wiki module is in development but not available to download yet. Check out this page for more info Chris!

    I shall PM you shortly. I'm rather busy today (someone has been switching off remote servers with large 'Please do not switch off' signs on them!) and have to clean up the mess.

    A Wordpress wiki is very easy to set up. Would recommend it.

    Re: Wiki?

    Grudgingly, I have to agree with mark - tho i have only seen it from a "surfers" point of view - i.e. not seen the admin of it.

    Regards,

    Re: Wiki?

    After much thought Wiki is a good idea. Providing we keep it to neccercery content only. Commonly used or hard to find KB Articles, and how-to's from obscure sites are all information that we need in one location. I'll have to host it on my other domain www.spookyplanet.co.uk as it gets less traffic and I have to yet use my MySQL quota for that. I'll get it set up tomorrow and polish it later!
