VW4 Prefix Wiki Links? I'm Lost.
Hi, I couldn't quite find anything that helps clear up my befuddlement by searching, so I ask...
How do I refer to a prefixed page using the "wiki" bbcode? Is that even possible?
I tried this, naively...
Code:
[wiki]Something:Title[/wiki]
... to no avail. (*See Below for what happens)
Then I tried the alternative...
Code:
[wiki=Something:Title]Title[/wiki]
... again, to no avail. (*See Below for what happens)
?
So, giving up, I saw that there is some feature for prefix-based bbcodes, so from the example above "SOMETHING" would be a bbcode?
However, when I tried that, it doesn't seem to whatsoever recognize the tag; as rendered, it just spits it out the tag code as text, as if not recognized as a tag, etc.
Next, I figured something must need to be configured...
Now: Possibly a bug? (Part One)
So I went looking in Structures->Prefix Manager. Strangely, when attempting to edit any given Prefix, including the default "Special" one ...
- the "BB-Code Tag Name" field does not consistently show in the popup that appears during edit. I haven't been able to figure what the pattern is, but sometimes it shows, sometimes it does not? (Like even for the same exact prefix, over different page loads, etc)
- even if/when it does show, entering something and then pressing "Save" just sits there; it never closes the popup, and I'm not sure it even persists the value I just entered. To do anything from there, I have to re-load the window, and re-roll the dice that this time, opening whatever Prefix will even show me the field to begin with..?
Possibly a Bug (Part Two)?
In circumstances where I was able to presumably get the "BB-Code Tag Name" to persist in Prefix Manager (as above), pages then begin to (seemingly) properly parse the tag specified (for instance: "[something]whatever[/something]" renders as a link, not just a dump of text)... but ... clicking on them yields unexpected, problematic results.
* = The behavior from here is similar to what problem I ran into with the wiki-tag based approaches, above)
Essentially, I wind up getting a "page does not exist" page (for content that I know exists at the given prefix+title).
Curious, when I click "Create", the "Title" part of the form has the full "something:whatever" string sitting in the title text box, with nothing selected in the Title prefix dropdown... as if something isn't being parsed or sent properly somewhere to split them apart?
I am quite lost. Any insight or help would be greatly appreciated!
