      How to handle category and duplication

      Hello Ted,

      For ease of managing a large amount of titles, I plan to create many subforums under Book for different type of books (Math, Fiction, Short Story ...). I also plan to have under Wiki Category several subcategories (ie: Under Book there's Math, Fiction, Short story...). How do I link different book to different category? Would
      PHP Code:
      [category]Math/Fiction[/category] 
      work?

      Since there's more than one person doing the inputting, is there a way to check for title/chapter duplication?

      Each book has an author name, how does user list/find books by authors? VaultWiki does not seem to have a field for author name.

      Thanks

      Since VaultWiki wasn't designed to post others' published content, the author name is the user name of the user who posts about it. You can sort by that author name from forum display.

      You would link to several categories using:
      Code:
      [category]Math[/category]
      [category]Fiction[/category]
      VaultWiki already checks for title duplication automatically.
