Liferay's wiki has been migrated from MediaWiki to the new wiki portlet

[Jorge Ferrer, modificado hace 15 años.]

Yes, we've finally done it!! Liferay's community wiki has been migrated from MediaWiki to Liferay's own wiki portlet.

We are pretty excited about this because it brings a lot of benefits. To name a few:

• The wiki is now fully integrated in the liferay.com website, so it's easier for community members to navigate through all the sources of information. For example, visitors that are directed to the wiki from Google can also navigate easily to the official documentation, forums, etc.
• The wiki now generates activities, which then show in the the profile page of each user. That way if you are an active contributor to the wiki you will receive the credit you deserve. It's also easier to keep track of the wiki contributions of your favorite developers and friends using the activies RSS feed.
• There is no longer a need for a separate user account to edit the wiki. Use the same account that you already have for the forums.
• Some nice new features: copy page, attachments per page, add several attachments at once, child pages, a syntax that is familiar but easier to remember ... and more to come.
• We can much more easily add any new feature that the community finds helpful for the wiki.
• By using the wiki portlet so extensively the developers and the user community will come up with great new ideas for improvements. This will help our end goal of making the wiki portlet the best wiki out there

If you hit some bug with either the wiki or the migration itself, please create a subtask of LEP-6726 and let us know.
