Usage Logging settings

Use this section to turn usage logging on/off (by default there’s no usage logging). When usage logging is turned on, all page creations and updates are logged. Wiki Plus uses SharePoint lists as the log storage. In order to support a large amount of log items, a usage log list is automatically created for each year, by the name “Usage [year]”. The list is structured with a hierarchical folder structure as follows: Usage 2013 list Folder permonth

Sub folder per-day

Sub-folder per-hour

1 1 2 1 2 .. 24 3 .. 30 2 3 .. 12

In case you do not wish to grant users permissions in the top-level site (See “Permission Settings section”), you can create another list to store the Wiki content templates, located in a different site. To create a new Wiki Plus content template list in a different site: 1. Go to that site’s “Site Settings” page. 2. Click the “Site Features” link and activate the “WikiPlus Library Feature”. 3.

35 Copyright © 2005-2016 KWizCom Corporation All rights reserved. www.kwizcom.com

Wiki Plus Localization If you need to implement a Wiki Plus solution in other language than English, you should read this section BEFORE you create a Wiki Plus site. All KWizCom components use .NET localization mechanism. This means that a KWizCom component will automatically use a language resource files (.resx files) according to the displayed application's language (this is true for all types of components). KWizCom Wiki Plus includes the following resource files, located in “C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\[12/14/15]\Resources” folder: 

WikiPlus.resx This resource file includes all the Wiki Plus captions and tooltips of Quick launch links, Wiki page menus / ribbon menus (SharePoint 2010).



RAD resource files These resource files contain the translation strings for the RAD editor which is used in the Wiki editor. With these files you can translate all Wiki editor’s parts, including: editor’s toolbar buttons, tooltips and the various dialogs (such as Insert document or Insert Picture popup windows). All RAD editor’s resource files begin with “Rad”.

If you wish to deploy a Wiki Plus site in any language that is supported by SharePoint, you need to follow the steps below before you create the Wiki Plus web site: 1. Make sure you have the required SharePoint language pack installed. 2. Open the “C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\[12/14/15]\Resources” folder. 3. Copy the resource file/s that you wish to translate and rename it according to the required language, for example: 36 Copyright © 2005-2016 KWizCom Corporation All rights reserved. www.kwizcom.com

copy wikiplus.resx to wikiplus.fr-fr.resx (which is the Wiki Plus resource file required for a French Wiki Plus site). 4. Open the file in any editor and translate all nodes.

Example: This node represents the "Duplicate Page" toolbar menu that appears in the wiki Edit page.

Duplicate Page

Override the string with your own required string. This way you can change/translate all captions in the Wiki Plus user interface.

5. Save the file. 6. Copy the file to “C:\Program Files\Common Files\ Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\[12/14/15]\CONFIG\Resources” folder. 7. Open the command prompt, and type the following STSADM command: stsadm -o copyappbincontent 8. Now you can create the new Wiki Plus site in the required language. You should see all Wiki Plus interface translated to the site’s language.

Creating a new Wiki Plus site / library Introduction After you set the general Wiki Plus settings in a site collection level, you can start deploying your Wiki Plus solution. You can deploy Wiki Plus in 2 ways: 

Create a Wiki Plus site/s (using the Wiki Plus site template).



Create Wiki Plus libraries in your existing SharePoint sites (using the Wiki Plus library template).

This enables you to deploy an enterprise wiki solution in various configurations: 

Team wiki – Create a Wiki Plus library in already existing team sites.



Department wiki – Create a Wiki Plus site and use the ready-to-use site template that includes Tagging capabilities, rating, wiki page discussions etc. (see detailed feature description in the user guide).



Enterprise wiki – Create a site collection that includes Wiki Plus sites – one per subject. This way you can support a very large number of wiki pages. The top level site should act as an entry point, including custom web parts such as: Tag Cloud (included in Wiki plus), and “Subjects” (links to the various topics – can be simply implemented with content editor web part).

38 Copyright © 2005-2016 KWizCom Corporation All rights reserved. www.kwizcom.com

Create a Wiki Plus site Creating a Wiki Plus site is as simple as creating any other SharePoint site. Simply select the "Wiki Plus" site template in the SharePoint's "Create site" wizard:

39 Copyright © 2005-2016 KWizCom Corporation All rights reserved. www.kwizcom.com

Making the WikiPlus site template available in different languages When you try to create a Wiki Plus site in another language, you will notice that it is missing (the following screenshot in French):

To make the Wiki Plus site template available in some language, follow these steps: 1. On your SharePoint 2010/2013 server, go to: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\1033\XML

40 Copyright © 2005-2016 KWizCom Corporation All rights reserved. www.kwizcom.com

2. Copy file WEBTEMPwikiplus.xml 3. Go to the required language’s folder below C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE for example: go to 1036\XML folder for French, and paste the

file there. 4. Edit the file and translate the site Description and the DisplayCategory property values:

IMPORTANT In SharePoint 2007, the DisplayCategory value MUST be different than “KWizCom” in any site other than English site. Leaving this property with the same “KWizCom” value will make the WikiPlus site template invisible in that language.

Create a Wiki Plus library You can add Wiki Plus functionality to existing SharePoint sites by simply creating a Wiki Plus library. In order for this Wiki Plus library template to be visible, you should activate the "WikiPlus Library Feature" site feature in the site where you want to create the Wiki Plus library:

41 Copyright © 2005-2016 KWizCom Corporation All rights reserved. www.kwizcom.com

After you activate the "WikiPlus Library Feature" feature, you will be able to create Wiki Plus libraries in that site:

42 Copyright © 2005-2016 KWizCom Corporation All rights reserved. www.kwizcom.com

Manage Taxonomy scope Introduction A part of the Wiki Plus solution is the KWizCom Tagging feature that enables the management of shared tags/categories by which wiki articles may later be easily found. When a user creates a wiki page he can tag the page by using the "Tags" field:

All tags that wiki authors use are collected and managed in shared tags list/s, exposed in standard Tag Cloud/Tag Index web part which can be deployed according to customer needs. As the application administrator, you can define the scope of these shared tags according to the business requirements: 

Site scope – tags that are shared only among team members in a specific team site. 43

Copyright © 2005-2016 KWizCom Corporation All rights reserved. www.kwizcom.com



Site collection scope – tags that are shared across several sites in a site collection.

When the Tagging Feature is activated in the site collection (this is one of the post installation tasks), it creates a tags list in site collection level – shared by all Wiki Plus sites in that site collection. You can create additional tags lists in various scopes for the usage of various wiki sites. For additional details about the Tagging feature management please refer to the Tagging feature user guide available in KWizCom web site: http://www.kwizcom.com/ProductPage.asp?ProductID=517&Product SubNodeID=522

Configure permission settings Before employees can start using your Wiki Plus site, you need to configure their permissions. By default, many Wiki Plus resources are installed at the top level site. This requires some permission settings that allow users to use these resources. Please follow the guidelines hereunder: Step Configure the “Knowledge Trustees” SharePoint group

Details 1. This group should have permissions to save wiki templates. Grant this group contributor rights on the “WikiPlus Content Templates” list, at the site collection level. 2. Join the relevant users to this group.

IMPORTANT: Wiki Plus caches the Knowledge Trustee’s group membership information for 1 min. This helps to improve performance because a user’s membership in the Knowledge Trustee group is checked several times in Edit mode. Configure users’ permissions for your Wiki Plus site

1. Make sure all relevant users belong to the site members group of your SharePoint Wiki Plus site (or inherit this permission from the parent site). 2. If you have users that have a direct permission to the Wiki Plus site, and not through a SharePoint group (NOT recommended!), you will need to grant them a contributor permission on the “WikiPlus Discussions” discussions list in the Wiki Plus site.

Grant permissions on the top-level site WikiPlus resources lists

If you wish users to use resources that are located in the site collection level such as images, attachments, movie clips etc., you need to grant at least reader permissions to all users on these lists (You have a list for

each type of resource in the site collection level). These lists include:

WikiPlus Administrative reports Wiki Plus includes 2 administrative reports which are available in various scopes: Wiki Plus library, Wiki Plus site, entire site collection: 

Pages report – provides data on created/updated/viewed pages in a defined period of time.



Contributors report – provides data on contributors (amount of created/updated pages for each one).

47 Copyright © 2005-2016 KWizCom Corporation All rights reserved. www.kwizcom.com

You can access these reports as a site administrator from the site settings page, or from the Site Collection settings page:

In this case these reports will display results in the whole site scope (if for example it contains several Wiki Plus libraries), or in the site collection scope (in case you have several Wiki Plus sites).

Migration of existing Wiki pages to Wiki Plus Wiki Plus includes a content migration tool that enables you to export existing SharePoint wiki pages and import them into Wiki Plus libraries. If you already have a SharePoint wiki library/site deployed, you can export its content to the Wiki Plus library using the Wiki Plus content migration utility. The migration process includes 2 stages: 1. Export SharePoint wiki library pages from existing SharePoint wiki library. 2. Import these pages into the Wiki Plus library.

IMPORTANT REMARKS: 

When you export SharePoint wiki pages into a Wiki Plus library, ALL pages from the SharePoint wiki library are copied into the target Wiki Plus library.



If the target Wiki Plus library contains some pages with the same names as the imported pages they will be overridden by the imported pages.



You can choose to skip default pages like home.aspx and how to use this wiki site.aspx in the import process



Wiki page links ("[[page name]] wiki markup) will be fixed during the import process, so linked pages will stay linked as expected.



When you have images in a SharePoint wiki page then when this page is imported into WikiPlus library, the image link will stay as is (linking to the image/s at their original location).
