Thibaut Camberlin 1.1 19 To have the Create a page / space panel set, make sure that it has been activated inside the administation of the wiki.

21 = Using the Editor =
22
23 When editing a page, you can add a link to an existing page (and can even find it using the search function inside the pop-up) or to a page that does not exist yet.
24
25 == Rich Editor (WYSIWYG) ==
26
27 In the rich editor, follow the following steps :
28
Thibaut Camberlin 6.1 29 * Edit the page in which you want to create a link to the new page
30 * Type your text. Eg: Check here how to add a customer to the CRM
31 * Select the text that will become a link
32 * Click on "Wiki page"

34 [[image:create-page-1.jpg]]
35
36 * Click on "Add new page (in current space)"
37
38 [[image:create-page-2.jpg]]
39
40 * Type the title of the page (this is the one in the URL of the new page)
41
42 [[image:create-page-3.jpg]]
43
44 * Click "Select"
45
Thibaut Camberlin 1.1 46 Now the link to the new page is inserted. You can click on "Save & View". You'll see a "?" next to the link because the page does not exist yet. You or any other member of the wiki can click on it in order to create the page and start adding content.

48 == Wiki Editor ==
49
Thibaut Camberlin 2.1 50 Using wiki editor, you just have to use wiki link syntax. The syntax is {{code}}[[label of my link>>wiki:space.title]]{{/code}}. Most of the time you don't have to specify the "wiki" part because the link is on the current wiki. Therfore it becomes

52 {{code}}
Thibaut Camberlin 2.1 53
Thibaut Camberlin 1.1 54 [[label of my link>>space.title]]
Thibaut Camberlin 2.1 55
