I have just started using pmwiki. I want to get rid of some unnecessary links that are appearing on my webpage. Here is my web link:
<URL:http://www.ece.rice.edu/~am68/>http://www.ece.rice.edu/~am68/

1. On the main page, there are links
main
Home Page
I haven't put these and I am not sure how to get rid of these.

They are part of the skin template. You are using the Skittlish skin, and the template is the file pmwiki/pub/skins/skittlish/skin.tmpl. You can edit it to remove the links around the group name and the page title.


2. On the side bar, when I click on any link (e.g., Research Overview), it shows
ResearchOverview
Research Overview
I would like to get rid of ResearchOverview on the top

Same case, this is the group name and the page name, see the skin.tmpl file.


When I created this link, I used
[[Research Overview/Research Overview]]
I also tried only with [[Research Overview]] to see if I can get rid of unnecessary link but then it put a ? mark at the end and didn't let me edit the page asking for a password and not accepting any:

Site
Research Overview
password

This is normal, the SideBar is a page in the Site group, and links in the SideBar like [[Research Overview]] would lead to the page [[Site/Research Overview]]. (And the Site group is edit-protected.)

So inside the SideBar you need to use links in the format [[GroupName/PageName]], eg. [[Main/Research Overview]] for a page ResearchOverview in the Main/ group.

You can browse/search the documentation for Links, WikiGroups and Skins, and if something in the documentation is not clear enough, tell us.

See the page on Skins:

You may also find useful a short tutorial on HTML: look at your favorite search engine.

And to be able to edit pages in the Site group:

Good luck,
