Hi,

I need to maintain a page at Trac Wiki for some project document
requirements.

To me, Trac Wiki is non-intuitive.

Where is the Trac Wiki beginner's doc?


My Trac Wiki is on my own server and the documentation link is on the 
right of the screen just above the main menu near the top of the page. 
Look for "Help/Guide" beneath the search box.


If you click that link it takes you to The Trac User and Administration 
Guide. You should see a Table of Contents on the right.


I mention all this because, being a wiki on your own server, you can 
alter the content to make it more intuitive for yourself and/or your users.


I encourage you to do that and when you are happy with it offer it back 
to the community.


As it happens you have a golden opportunity to improve the Help/Guide by 
writing a specific beginner's guide - because you are currently looking 
at it with the fresh eyes of a newcomer to Trac. That only happens once 
for everyone.


Something I found useful making my own documentation in the wiki was the 
link at the bottom of each page to download the page as plain text. 
Someone here suggested that when I asked how replicate a particular 
effect. Can't remember who it was but I hope I thanked him/her.


Cheers

Mike

Is this meant to be fun? If so I don't get it, sorry, if not I won't
care at all, as I wish to spend my time here with acting kindly and
being helpful and getting educated myself.

Nice. Even as a non-native-speaker I got the humor rather easily, even
before getting to this bottom line.

I don't like this answer, as it makes me feel less like a genius. See, I 
go looking for stuff in Trac, and with combinations of google, looking 
at the DB and grepping through the source, I find what I'm looking for, 
make my tweaks, do my fixes, and impress everyone with how clever I am.


Now, you come along and tell me that Trac really is this intuitive, and 
that I'm not that clever, it's just so well-designed, thought out, and 
documented that one of my more clever cats could install it on 
Ubuntu/Postgres/Apache/WSGI/SSL/selfsigned certs.


This is really damaging to my ego and sense of self, Steffen. As a 
product of the "you are a beautiful and unique snowflake" American 
public school system, I demand that you state that Trac is impossible, 
non-intutive, opaque and ill-documented, thus cementing the validation 
of my brilliance and resourcefulness.

I feel, that you need more feedback about the perception of your
behavior here. Offense is not intended at all from my side, even if you
mean to spot it.

To me, you're a very inpatient customer, who is shouting a bit too loud
for someone using software and support all for free.

Trac has a rather clear, thoughtful and long-term tested web-UI design
compared to the competition. As you see by Matthew's answer, its right
in front of you, if you take your time to look and read.

Otherwise you may feel that it's no fun to answer your questions by
getting no response at all, you see.

If its attached to the page you want to display it, you can be even more
