Is Wiclear a fork of dotclear ?

No, Wiclear has nothing in common with DotClear except some icons (I asked Olivier Meunier) and some lines of code.

As stated on the main page, the quality of Dotclear gave me the desire to write a wiki to answer specific problems I encoutered on a previous experience. I had a look to Dotclear's code to see how some problems were resolved, I even copied some lines of code (<100 lines), and I initially mimic the file organization (but that's not true anymore).

In short, except the name, Wiclear is not related and share nothing with Dotclear. It is not a plugin, and cannot be integrated with Dotclear.

Theme : Display sub nodes in a page

Sub nodes can be displayed using the function subContentBox(). See documentation page dedicated to function available for building theme.

I can't see sub nodes in a page

Possible causes :

• the theme don't display the sub node box (see entry above)
• is there really sub nodes in this page ? To verify, simply use the site plan to verify arborescence.
• It is also possible that those sub pages have been deleted.
• It may also be possible that Wiclear has corrupted its internal arborescency data cache. Don't be afraid, no data has been lost, all you have to do is regenerate it. For that, go to admin panel, then "database maintenance", and click "Verify and repair database"
• Finally, it is also possible that the html cache (if it has been activated, see admin preferences for that) has also been corrupted. In this case, clean it from the admin preferences page.

If you think that it is a cache problem and you found a reproductible way to show the problem, then what I'd like is a bug report.

What if I want a specific feature

Modify the Features page. If I'm interested in the feature I'll do it. If I'm not I won't do it, but you can do it. Keep in mind I'm developping Wiclear on my free time for fun. This is not a work I'm getting paid for. I want this web application to remain a hobby, and my family is the top priority. So don't ask me when this particular version/feature will be done. It will be done someday, maybe.

I found a bug, how to report it ?

Modify the Bugs page. Bugs are my top priority. If you give me enough information or are ready to spend some time with me, I'll have it resolved.

I want to help

I don't believe anymore in people wanting to help. People that want to help actually *do* it, and specifically don't ask if they can. If you want to help, have a look to the bug page, to the feature page, to the documentation here and here, to the design aspect of the web site and code. Then send a patch.
I'd like to say a big thanks to people who have previously contributed to Wiclear. Specifically to people that reported bugs, that have provided i18n translation packages and to those who have sent patches. They all did it by themselves, on their own, and all patches were integrated, except for once.

Installation of Wiclear

on Free (http://www.free.fr)

Free changed its php configuration. It is not that easy to use php sessions.
Before you start the install program, you should manually create a directory called 'sessions' at the root of your site. If you do not create this directory, you will experience strange warning like :

 session_start(): open(/var/www/free.fr/f/9/your_free_acount/sessions/sess_6fa2435e294c23a2cb6a99f57b5cf4bc, O_RDWR) failed: No such file or directory (2) in

Creation problem with session directory

Since 0.8.2, Wiclear tries to create automatically the session dir if it doesn't exist. The purpose is to try preventing the problem described above. Problem is this step can sometimes fail (SIC). In that case, you will have to edit file install/index.php, and comment lines 48 to 52 which should read :

 $check->addItem(
   file_exists($session_dir) & is_writable($session_dir),
   tr("session dir")." ".$session_dir." ".tr("exists and is writable"),
   tr("session dir")." ".$session_dir." ".tr("does not exist or is not writable : sessions will not work")
 );
