evennia-wiki structure

evennia-wiki is based around a simple page structure.  Each page (wiki article) is set in a specific place and can have a parent and child pages.

Parent page

A page always has a parent page, except for the root page.  The root page’s address (its location) is /, meaning it’s at the top of the hierarchy.

A child page of the root page may have an address of /rule for instance.  This page /rule has for parent page the root page (/).

If you create a child page of this /root page, of address 1 for instance, this page will have for full address /rule/1 and for parent page /rule.

This simple hierarchy of parent page is easy to understand and connect to most wiki architectures.  The points to remember here are:

• Each page has an address.  This address is not the page title.  When creating a page, you’ll be asked for the page sub-address (that is, the part after the parent address and a slash).  See [page creation](page.md#create-a-page] for more details.
• Each page always has a parent, except for the root page.  The root page’s address is / and it’s at the top of the hierarchy.

Child pages

Similarly, a page can have child pages.  The /rule page could have for child pages /rule/1 and /rule/2.  The root page itself will have for child page (in this example) only /rule.

You can create new child pages on any wiki page.  To do so, click on the “child pages” sub-menu.  In the address, enter the sub-address of the future page.  For instance, if you’re on /rule and want to add /rule/1, just type 1 in this field.  Click on create.

A page can have zero, one or several child pages.
