Welcome to wiclear home page
Wiclear is a Wiki engine. That is, a software to create web sites where content is freely editable online. Wiclear is in early development and has few features, compared to more advanced projects like Wikini, Wikimedia or other well known wiki engines : you'd better use them before looking in more details to WiClear.
What are the goals of WiClear ?
WiClear is all the most an attempt to rewrite the Nosica web site.
Nosica used a very light wiki (home made), and it was time to rewrite it in good php.
It is Dotclear that gave me the desire to rewrite a wiki and learn some more php.
Main features are :
- easy themability,
- hierarchical structure,
- multi lang supports (not only UI but content as well), and
- a plugin architecture.

Happy new year to you, visitor, Wiclear user or future Wiclear user.
It's been a long time since I've published a new Wiclear version. The good news is 0.9 is nearly finished feature-wised. The bad news is Wiclear development has slowed down because I don't have enough time... Well but this is because of another good news : I've got a daughter now !
I've recently received some pretty good encouragement, and that's nice and all, but now I need help. I need help for testing (2/3 guys already do it from time to time), I need help writing user documentation (on this site, using wiki syntax), and I need help for coding. See page TODO, Developers, and Roadmap. Thanks !

This brings in multilingual content.
Now your wiki can contain several lang at once, and you can quickly identify in which lang the content you're currently browsing is in. You can have access to all translated version of a particular page in one click. Number of langs is limited only by the willingness of the administrator and by the translators.
