How can I invite people to my wiki?
To share access as a writer
To share access as a writer scroll down to the bottom of your right panel, and enter the user's e-mail address into the "Sharing" tool bar.
To add other access levels
You can also go into "Settings" and then "Users" to apply other access levels.
Add people using the Request Access feature
Who would use Request Access?
It’s perfect if you want to add users to your wiki, but don’t want to manage the process of figuring out their email address, adding them, and managing them. You’ll still be able to add users to your wiki, but Request Access allows your users to make your life easier.
See the Request Access page for more details.
How do I add Page-level access controls to my wiki?
If you have a Premium wiki, you can add page-level access to your wki. See our billing page for more information about adding a premium plan to your wiki.
How do I give someone Page-level access to my wiki?
If you have a premium wiki go to "Settings" and then "Users." Enter in an e-mail address and choose "Page-level."
You can then go to individual wiki pages, click the "Page Security" tab on the right panel. Choose "Custom" to apply page-level access.
What's an RSS feed?
RSS is a method for subscribing to changes made on your wiki so you can see what has changed more easily. Most web browsers include RSS readers, and generally show a feed icon somewhere near the address bar (the icon is orange in most browsers, but it's blue in Safari.) When you click this icon, you'll see a list of available feeds. Here's what that looks like in the Firefox browser.
Your PBwiki has a few feeds you can subscribe to:
- The Recent Changes feed includes all recent changes on your wiki, including page edits, comments, file uploads -- you name it.
- Each wiki page has its own feed that only includes edits and comments on that particular page
- Each folder has its own feed that includes edits and comments made to any page in that folder
If your wiki is public, the RSS feeds will include only publicly visible changes. If the wiki is private, you will be prompted for your email address and password, and then all changes you have permission to see will be included. (Note that hidden pages are never shown in feeds.)
Some online feed readers don't support password protected feeds like ours. These include Google Reader, My Yahoo!, and Bloglines. If you use one of these, unfortunately, private PBwiki feeds will not be available. There's a detailed list of feed readers available on Wikipedia at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_feed_aggregators
.
How do I get individual page RSS feeds?
For premium users, you can also get individual page feeds by typing in the name of page as a parameter:
http://publicwiki.pbwiki.com/rss2.php?page=FrontPage
In the case above, substitute "publicwiki" for the name of your wiki and use the name of the page you wish to watch after the equal sign.
How do I enable or disable emailed change notifications?
Log into your PBwiki Account on my.pbwiki.com and check the "Enable Notifications" box next to your wiki name to enable notifications. Unchecking the box will allow you disable notifications. You can also go to your "Preferences" area to change the frequency of the notification e-mails.
IP Restriction
IP restriction is part of our business premium pricing plans. To find out more information about adding IP whitelisting or blacklisting to your wiki contact sales(at)pbwiki(dot)com.
