I spent the last couple days learning about DokuWiki and integrating it with my wordpress/bbpress installs on muagames.com. I’m finally finished, and the results are quite nice. All three pieces (site/blog, forum, wiki) share one account system – you can log in on one and it automatically logs you into the others, and the wiki takes its user groups and permissions from your wordpress settings. On the flip side, it introduces all the wordpress overhead to the wiki, but it’s worth it in my opinion.
I got it all set up this morning and already somebody wanted help doing the same. I wrote up the custom dokuwiki authentication module and a nice set of instructions, and now he is up and rolling too. I decided it would be helpful for others if I posted it all online, and so I did.
DokuWiki + WordPress Integration
It works on the latest version of DokuWiki and at least as far back as WordPress 2.5.1. Give it a try and let me know what you think.
If you set it up on your site, let me know! Maybe we can make a list of sites using it.
