Links

Links to posts:

The double square bracket indicates that this is a link to an article within the wiki:
[[Article1]]
If there is no article with this heading yet, a link to a new article is shown. If the article has been created, the user can jump directly to this article.

[[article|display name in text]]
The "|" character can be used to add a display text to a link. The alias text is used instead of the heading.

Links to images:

The keyword "Image:" indicates that an image is displayed.
[[Image:myImage.png]], [[Image:http://www.intrexx.de/images/myImage.png]]
This can be used to reference an image that is stored in the "htmlroot" directory. Naturally, subfolders or links to external websites can also be specified.

[[Image:myImage.png|alt tag]]
The "|" character can be used to add an alt tag to an image.

Links to websites:

The single square bracket indicates that this is a link to an external web page:
[http://www.intrexx.de]
This is the link to the Intrexx website.

[http://www.intrexx.de|The Intrexx website]
The "|" character can be used to display a web link with an alternative text within the article.

Particularities

Masking with the '\' character can prevent styles from being applied or lists from being generated (to output the '\' character, you must enter '\\').

Example:
\1. Text does not become a list

or
\& becomes &
\< becomes <
\> becomes >

Text embedded in [[!!]] is ignored.

Example:
[[! == Heading 1 == !]] is output as == Heading 1 ==.
