Change the Syntax when Editing

To choose the Syntax for the current Page when editing with the Wiki editor or with the WYSIWYG Standalone editor :

1. Select the content Syntax you want to use from the "Page Syntax" section inside the "Page Information" Panel.

   

   Information

   By default only the latest XWiki Syntax is enabled. If your administrator has configured other Syntaxes, then you have the option to choose what Syntax you want to use for writing the content of a Page, see the Rendering wiki for a full list of available Syntaxes.

2. Convert the content to the new Syntax:

   

   • Automatically, by clicking "Yes". If you choose this, you also need to check for conversion errors.

   • Manually, by clicking "No".
3. Save the modifications (or discard them) using the Common Edit Actions.
