As I understand it, the information at each Tiki site (tw.o, doc.tw.o, etc.) should be unique and just linked to if it needs to be available to users at another site. When putting themes.tw.o together, some content was moved from tikiwiki.org to there, to avoid having it in two places. Pages duplicated at different sites will become out of sync when one side is updated. If we want to actually display the information at more than one site, is it possible to have an intertiki include plugin so updates are automatic? I believe the focus of doc.tw.o is how to use the standard Tiki package. That means info on extending the default Tiki would be at mods.tw.o, themes.tw.o, etc. -- Gary

My my reason to add a copy of documentation work in themes.tw.o is that is included in next pdf file produced from doc.tw.o Documentation structure with the rest of documentation (there was a big lack of information in current documentation site about the state of the art of themes and styles available in Tiki community...) A solution could be using SNARF plugin, but it's not available at doc.tw.o right now, and some coders don't like to allow snarf splugin to be available for registered users, since the regex param can be dangerous to allow control of your tiki site to others...) So the best solution "could be" (from my point of view) having a modified version of SNARF plugin like this: allowing registered users to call it (and snarf'ed content viewable by anonymous), but having the regex param restricted to editors or admins (through adding a new perm tiki_p_snarf_regex or similar, assignable to some groups and off by default for registered). having a new optional param to avoid getting lateral columns for tiki sites. (maybe allow avoiding header and footer from content snarfed from tiki sites, also?) This way, content could be evolving in the source sites, and being automatically updated at view time in doc.tw.o. But we need help from benevolent coders to make this happen...
