Chiq_Chaq - wiki for regular people |
|
|
Chiq_chaq was inspired by WikiWikiWeb,
implementing forum-like features and dynamic site management,
combined with easy localization and friendliness towards non-technical
users.
You can see a working
English chiq_chaq,
or visit an active
Hebrew chiq_chaq group.
Latest version is freely available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/chiqchaq.
Feature Highlights:
- Fast "add to page" textarea at the bottom of each page, alongside
whole page edit for advanced users.
- Auto-linking of words_with_underscores to pages with that
title (for languages that do not have lower and upper case, like
Hebrew, Arabic, Kanji).
- Cool recent_changes page for any number of days, with options to hide
changes of certain types or changes to pages that the user already
browsed, and much more.
- Full text and title search with highlighted search hits.
- Supports bold and italic text, multi-level bulleted and numbered
lists, headings, superscripts, greeks, source code highlighting.
- Auto-identifies hyperlinks and image URL's.

"quote of the day".

including: Home Page,
