I followed the installation instruction to install the plug-in in a TonidoPlug. I faced one problem: After unzipping the plugin and restarting, all the plug-ins in Tonido were suspended and pmwiki wasnt listed. After clicking on 'resume all apps', pmwiki was listed as one of the apps to be activated.

Once activatred, PMwiki worked fine. I did following tasks and all worked fine. I have attached 2 screenshots.

I created three simple pages and sideBar links.
1) simple text and table
2) With formatted text
3) With images

Searched the pages for keywords,

Edited settings to set anyone to read the files.

I'm not familiar with PMWiki, so I didn't edit any advance settings.

One more comment: When images are uploaded, the images are uploaded into Plug's internal storage. It would be good if the plug-in gave an option to store in external storage.

Are you sure the uploads were going to internal storage? It will look like there is an uploads folder on internal storage, but that should actially be a symlink that points to either "/media/disk1part1/pmwiki/ uploads" or "/media/usb0/pmwiki/uploads" (depending on your Tonido Plug).

It will look like you have two identical upload folders, one internally, and one externally, but the files are actually stored externally. Symbolic links are interesting in the fact that that Tonido File Explorer will actually think it has a real "uploads" folder internally, but it doesn't; it is actually external. It needs to think they are internally, because we need that folder in our html path so you can actually download them again.

Can you make sure the uploads folder exists on /media/.../pmwiki? You should see the uploads in there as well (or I should say, you will see the real uploads there).

Also, I need to make sure; you are using RC1, correct?

I m using RC1

Yes the uploads are in "/media/disk1part1/pmwiki/. I refered disk1part1 as internal storage.
I checked my external storage usb0, I didnt find any of the uploaded files.

I tried installing the app in Windows and I couldnt make it work. when I click on "resume" Pmwiki, I got Tonido down error and when I launch, I got Tonido down error.

Update
I am understanding your dilemma more.

The current wiki does not work on anything but the plug.

I can allow for different install locations, but I will then need to move PmWiki core includes externally as well. I will then have to store a special update config file in plugindata to alert the installer where the install location is. This will remove symlinks, and probably allow this to function on any OS. If I do this, this will break current config files. People trying RC1 will have to either modify their config.php file, or do a clean install. If they back up their wiki.d folder, they could copy the contents into their fresh install so not to lose wiki pages.

I will look into this. If I can't get access to the profile/user/plugindata folder, I will have to resort to default locations: plugin => disk1part1 or usb0; windows, mac, and linux => app root directory. Or at least storing a config file in a default location that redirects the wiki to the correct install location.

Okay. I have the code in to allow people to install anywhere they would like. I couldn't get rid of symlinks because I need to have pictures and uploads in the html path. I don't know of a way to get around this.

This probably will not allow windows to have this feature (if I implement this on windows). I will probably be able to have this working on Linux and Mac, but that will come after I can get this out on Tonido Plug. I am sure there are other quirks in setup on PCs that I will need to look at.

I will not release this in RC2 until I have access to finding Tonido profile folders in the next version of PHP.

RC2 coming this weekend. The only real change is it allows you to install your wiki data where you want it. It is a big one though, because I had to change how things were organized...for the better, but still a big structure change.

If you are coming from RC1 to RC2 I suggest you backup your wiki.d folder(this contains your wiki pages).

Delete the folder /media/disk1part1/pmwiki.

Reinstall Fresh

Copy backed up wiki.d over the newly installed wiki.d folder.

Start wiki and reconfigure config file. (if you did advanced edits, backup config file and merge advanced changes by hand; I did change the config file by relocating session data).

Thanks so much for your work and efforts in getting this wiki working with the Tonido Plug. I've been looking for a decent self-hosted wiki for a while and this is perfect!

Although...I have to say, I might prefer DokuWiki. ;)

Thanks. DokuWiki was my first choice, but there seemed to be some performance issues on the plug. PmWiki was my second choice and it ran smooth, so I went with PM for now (less modifications needed; easier to maintain). All things considered, PmWiki is a pretty good wiki that is fairly easy to extend. If it doesn't do everything you like, there usually is a plugin to get that feature. On rare occasions I have had to modify an existing plugin to do exactly what I wanted.

I may look into finding and fixing the performance issue with Doku in the future (when I get some time). It does work on the plug, it is just s...l...o...w.

Well that's good to know...shame about the performance issue. Do you think that's a problem with the hardware or Doku? I think PmWiki still looks nice and it seems to have a more liberal license too. I was looking at the cookbook and there are some cool plugins there.

Thanks again.
