Hello all, I want my Drupal site to have a wiki-type section where anyone can edit. I don't want to make the standard "page" module editable by all, because I also want users to have private pages that only they can edit. So I was thinking of installing another module that is similar to the page module and simply set the permissions that anyone can edit any node made with that other module. That's why I call it "wiki". But I don't really care about the wiki syntax as such. I looked through the modules page, but I didn't see anything. Btw, I have Drupal 5. Thanks for the help. Cheers, Daniel.
You don't need another module. Just create another content type called "wiki". Then, set the appropriate permissions on that content type so anyone can edit it. Daniel Carrera wrote:

I didn't know you could do that. How do I do it? Paul Kim wrote:

There are numerous user permissions per content type: create page content edit own page content edit page content The downside is that the delete function will be available to anyone you give the 'edit page content' permission to.

In D6, the "delete" right is separated out, which eliminates this issue. Greg Holsclaw wrote:

Certainly, that's why I want to separate them. I want "public" pages that anyone can edit (and hence, delete) and owner-only pages that only the owner and a small group of trusted individuals can edit (and delete). Paul's suggestion of making a new content type that is just like "page" sounds perfect for my situation. I just need to learn how to make a new content type. Daniel.

Of course not, but you do to create a new content type, unless you do it with a custom module, and I think that's not the best route for a beginner ;) This is the question I was answering:

Drupal core can create new content types, they just consist of a body and a title. Cheers, Jonathan -- Jonathan Hedstrom OpenSourcery http://opensourcery.com Technology for Good

As of Drupal 5 and later CCK is NOT required to create new content types. This functionality is included with Drupal core. __________________ Michael Prasuhn mike@mikeyp.net http://mikeyp.net
I used a book content type to recreate a wiki here: http://www.workalone.co.uk/wiki and some of the ideas here: http://cwgordon.com/how-to-create-a-wiki-with-drupal I also worked out the way to get Geshi and Pear Wiki filters playing nicely: http://www.workalone.co.uk/node/129 I still want to mess a bit with the book structure, but as it stands it's wiki like.

Could you show me how to do it? Creating a new content type seems like the perfect solution for me. I just don't know how. Thanks. Daniel.

Just go to Adminster -> Content Management -> Content Types Then click on "Add Content Type" in the secondary tabs.

I didn't know because I've never had the need to create a content type with just a body and title, and I tend to replace the body with my own text field, it makes it easier for me when printing fields in my node template. So, I take back what I said. Cheers, -- http://nic.ipwa.net/ http://drupal.org/user/130909
