- Title - Set this to "Wiki".

Find the forum you created in the list, and click to edit it. At the top of the form you should see the Title of the forum followed by "(id: X)". Make a note of the ID number. You will need this later.
Because we named our forum "Wiki", the wiki forum will use the [wiki] BB-Code to link to articles in itself and its subforums.Configuring Settings

Make sure the following settings are correct:
- Filename of the Wiki PHP File - should be "showwiki"
- $_REQUEST Title Variable - should be "title"
- Filename of the CSS File - should be "special"
In Usergroups > Usergroup Manager, you will notice a new permissions group "CES VaultWiki Permissions". These permissions control who can edit articles. Set them as desired.Wrapping Up
Open Threads & Posts > Wiki Article Tools. Click the "Rebuild Article List" button.
