Wiki Syntax
May 18 2007, 8:17 AM EDT
It appears that there is no way to create a new page by highlighting a word and creating a new link. The only option is to link to a "page on this site" or "complete url" . Is that true? Shouldn't there be an option to "create new page" based on that link?
Do you find this valuable?

Can someone help me with this? Do you find this valuable? |

If you want to link to a page, the page must exsist first-either on your site or elsewhere on the web.
So create your wiki page first and place it wherever you want it on your wiki site (top level pages or subpages, etc.) - then you can link to it from any of your other pages. Hopes this helps. Do you find this valuable? |

You'll want to create the pages first, then add the links after the fact. If there is text on pages that refer to other pages I would recommend using the "Suggest Links" button on the EasyEdit toolbar. This will automatically link text to the appropriate existing page. For example, if I had some text on my home page that mentioned "Ancient Rome" and I had a subpage somewhere on my site titled "Ancient Rome" then the suggest links feature would automatically want to link that text to that page.
