Sharon,
There is a button that drops down a menu of pages but we would haveGroups.io's wiki is lacking in organizational features. The default wiki home page is an index of the pages, essentially duplicating what's in the Pages menu. But you can, as I did for GMF, replace that index page with a custom home page that creates the kind of organization you want to have. Not very convenient to maintain though, as it is all built with hand-crafted text, formatting, and links. Are there instructions anywhere?There's our beginnings of a guide in GMF's wiki. Thanks to JMichaelTX for getting it started. Anyone got the gumption to help fill in more details? /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Wiki-Guide-for-Users-and-Editors The formatting toolbar for Wiki pages is very similar to the message formatting toolbar, but not exactly the same. One interesting difference is that in wiki the Enter key is a paragraph break, Shift+Enter a line break. Message formatting is the opposite. /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Message-composition-tips-and-tricks Is it true that only the images in the wiki count toward the storageThat's what the man says. /static/help#storagelimits Shal |

John, i understand how to auto generate?a contents list based on the page and tags used - is there a similar?way to offer a page that indexes all the pages of the Wiki automatically on a page? There is not. For some purposes the Pages button serves to provide an alphabetical list of all of the wiki pages. But that is a drop-list and not a page where you could put other information before or after the list. There is also the Search box on the upper right, which for some purposes will serve the same role as an Index would in a paper document, but absent the editorial choice of what entries are significant. Out of curiosity, what would you do with the kind of generator you imagine? What features would it need to make it useful?

John,

Ok, so one feature it would need is an equivalent to the header levels, to give the page links a hierarchy on the front page. Maybe a new type of format tag in the page editor, or some such.
?
Tell us about it...? ;-)

Perhaps I should complain to Mark about this again. Worse, the title text is not included in the Compare Revisions function, so you can't even tell when it happened or who did it.
