Hi,

For those of you that would like to create a new web page, you'll need to know the following.

Currently there is something strange with the configuration of the web (wiki) site. It _should_ be possible to just enter a URI such as

        http://www.lyx.org/SomeNewPage?action=edit

and just create that page. However, this currently creates a page in a
(nonexistant) wiki group called 'Group', instead of in the page 'Web' where it should be created.

The workaround is to specify the name of the group in the URI when you create the page, e.g.

        http://www.lyx.org/Web/SomeNewPage?action=edit

Also note that if you create a link to a page that does not exist, this will also point to the wrong page, or rather to a page with the correct name but in the wrong wiki group.

The workaround here is to specify the name of the group in the link, e.g.

        [[Web/SomeNewPage]]

Please note that one the page exists (in the correct group, i.e. Web), a link such as the following works just fine.

        http://www.lyx.org/SomeNewPage?action=edit

I will try and figure out why we have this bug in the configuration, but the setup is a tiny bit of a mess as there were several of us working with the configuration at the same time. (I'm also a bit hampered while troubleshooting, as I don't want to break the site... I might be able to use the test site to deal with this.)

best regards,
Christian
