We have tried to figure out but we hadn't had any luck and couldn't wrap our heads on how to get it working, so more information will be gladly accepted!

Yaron Koren (talkcontribs)

Do what?

Phenguini (talkcontribs)

Use the mintydocs plugin as a whole

Yaron Koren (talkcontribs)

What did you try, and what didn't work?

Phenguini (talkcontribs)

How do we define structures? pages? anything? Just the whole basics we couldn't get working

Yaron Koren (talkcontribs)

I'm not sure how to answer that. Were you able to at least create a product page? That's the basis for everything else.

Phenguini (talkcontribs)

We weren't able to figure out how to even start creating product pages, could you send a guide or detail what we need to do in order to use the plugin?

Yaron Koren (talkcontribs)

To create a product page, pick any page and add the call {{#mintydocs_product:}} to it. It can take various parameters, but all of them are optional.

Phenguini (talkcontribs)

It seems that adding permissions doesn't work. We tried {{#mintydocs_product:test1 editors=JustAPlenguin}}

Yaron Koren (talkcontribs)

What is "test1" doing there?

Phenguini (talkcontribs)

The name of the product no?

Yaron Koren (talkcontribs)

No, the name of the product is set by the page name - or by the "display name=" parameter, if it's set. Do you know how parser functions in MediaWiki work?

Phenguini (talkcontribs)

I got it

Phenguini (talkcontribs)

Now another thing that arises, is it possible to make tabs? Like you have uptop an option to click and it changes the page? couldn't find if there was

Phenguini (talkcontribs)

Also, is it possible to have users click on a page and not have the big popup text saying "Click on any of the following to see the documentation for that version:"

Yaron Koren (talkcontribs)

Sorry, I didn't understand the question about the tabs. What tabs would you want to have?

As for that text - MintyDocs defines pages within the structure "product > version > manual > topic". What structure do you want within your wiki?

Phenguini (talkcontribs)

Okay, you click on a page you are in the 4.0 tab, then you have an option to go to the 3.0 tab, I want to do that, how would I go on doing that?
