Major Additions - VaultWiki Lite 4.x: Wiki for vBulletin Forums

VaultWiki allows your existing forum users to work together on creating and managing a site's content pages, rather than competing to make popular threads. VaultWiki is a fully-featured and fully-supported wiki add-on solution for vBulletin.

Encourage Users to Work Together
VaultWiki allows your community to collaborate to create and publish content pages for your site. Multiple users can edit the same page, and your staff can moderate changes as they are made. VaultWiki maintains a detailed history of every page, making it just as easy to reverse unwanted changes.

Create All Kinds of Content
With VaultWiki, you can create general site content, user manuals for your products, wikis, eBooks, eCommerce product pages, and more. With a little imagination, VaultWiki can be purposed to do almost anything.

Seamlessly Integrates With Your Community
At its core, VaultWiki is an add-on product for your vBulletin forum platform. Its pages all meld with the forum's existing style. Users write new content with the same editor and BB-Codes they are already familiar with. The content is indexed by your forum's built-in search engine. And each user's contributions are acknowledged on his or her profile.

Attract New Membership
VaultWiki creates content and content URLs that are designed to drive new traffic to your site. With guides for search engines embedded in every page, each page preserves its value when it comes to generating traffic.

Fast, Responsive Support
Subscriptions come with free support in our forums and bug tracker system, and documentation is available online at all times. Paid installation and upgrade services can be ordered via our web site.

Active Development
The team at VaultWiki.org are actively involved in the development process. VaultWiki is constantly updated to be compatible with the newest forum software releases, to meet web standards, and to incorporate new technologies. Bugs are fixed promptly and new features come out all the time.

hello,
thanks for the product...

but i cannot create any sections without purchasing?
i noticed that you cannot do much of anything except use the wiki as a blog pretty much unless you pay... any chance of that changing?

[thincom2000]

My understanding is that the Lite version is supposed to be like a "trial version" where most things are only possible if you pay. However, you should be able to create basic articles, link them all together, and view their change histories.

If you're having trouble performing a simple task, it might be a bug in the Lite version. If you can be more specific about the steps you are attempting, I can try to reproduce the problem and come up with a fix.

I am just going in to the admin side and trying to create sections to see how it all works out. but no options for itl

VaultWiki 4 RC 2 is available today. For Lite users, it includes a bunch of stability improvements, as well as a new feature: users can give Reputation for wiki comments.

For a full list of the changes in RC 2 (not only for Lite users), see this snapshot from the tracker: https://www.vaultwiki.org/projectsea...suereportid=30

Just posted the update to Lite for VaultWiki 4 RC 3, which has been out 2 weeks now. It seems to have been a pretty stable release so far, so RC might be over soon. Even so, RC 3 did not change much compared to RC 2 when looking at the Lite version. It would seem that most of the core features are already pretty stable, and that mostly non-Lite features have been having problems.

Here's some of the relevant bits for Lite:

(released September 23, 2014)

• Fixed dynamic scripts always loading from CDNs
• Fixed a lot of missing phrases
• Fixed blank moderator notifications
• Fixed integrity of moderated content
• About 35 other bugs that weren't limited to vBulletin (or Lite) are fixed

This was posted to Twitter moments ago:

"While debugging our @MediaWiki importer, we discovered that upgrades from Lite left users in non-upgraded state. Users who upgraded from VaultWiki Lite during RC should contact support for a data integrity review."

Support is currently working on an alternate upgrade path to resolve affected installations without performing a re-install.

Tried your product. Liked what I saw at first, but it broke my forum. I don't know if it was a conflict or what, but BBcodes simply did not work on the forum anymore.

Image codes did, but everything else did not. Tried disabling the VaultWiki, and even that didn't fix the problem, so I had to uninstall it entirely, and everything went back to normal.

Like my friend EliasAlucard, I like the concept of VaultWiki because I want full integration without having multiple databases and user accounts. Since there is no MediaWiki bridge for vB4, I suppose I'll just go without a Wiki for now.

I hope that I am able to reinstall it again in the future.
