wiki text size
Re: wiki text size
Posted:25 Feb 2009 (20:22 UTC)Tikiwiki syntax might not allow this (see tikiwiki.org for details). You might have to switch to a content format parser that provides the feature you want. Content formats are enabled and disabled in Admin > Liberty > Plugins > Formats. Other formats can also be added.
Alternatively, you could enable HTML in Admin > Liberty > Plugins > Formats, and then allow admins or editors or registered users to input HTML in Admin > Users > Groups and Permissions.
Alternatively, you could use the DataPlugin called DIV. Enable it in Admin > Liberty > Plugins > Data. You can then write in your wiki page:

Posted:26 Feb 2009 (02:43 UTC)Dan, I went through the same conundrum in the first few months.
Initially my site was Tiki Wiki, and 3-4 months later I was sufficiently fed-up with the limitations of its syntax and changed the hundreds of pages over to html (at Laetzer's suggestion).
The reasons that I changed were that:
I changed to using FCKeditor - it still wasn't plain sailing after that but for me it was a better choice.
In FCKeditor I could at least change the pre-set formats for text like heading 1, heading 2 and so on; and I really like its table functions too.
The one thing that I can't seem to figure out is how to have multiple files or images all on the same line without using a table - but I guess one day the penny may drop.
There are some Bitweaver Core Developers that are pro Tiki Wiki and others that use HTML.
Hope that helps.
Oh and here are a couple of how to's if you need them in addition to what Laetzer has already posted above:
How do I use HTML in a Wiki page
What if I want my site to be HTML only
Although its been several months since I changed my site over so I am going from memory for the later instructions.

The reasons that I changed were that:
- I was not as conversant in Wiki syntax (and already had enough of a learning curve with installing Bitweaver that I didn't need to have the challenge of learning yet another language)
- I couldn't really get the option of allowing html in wiki to work
- I wanted to have greater control over the way the text looked
- I couldn't for the life of me get the tables to look right
