Creating a Blank Wiki

  1. Make a clone of the Wiki with:

    git clone git://www.fdsd.co.uk/viki

  2. Delete any unwanted webs, e.g. Business and Tech:

    cd viki rm -rf Business Tech

  3. Create a directory for your new web:

    mkdir MyWeb

  4. Modify the Makefile with the active web names:

    sed -i s/SUBDIRS=Tech Business/SUBDIRS=MyWeb/ Makefile

  5. Modify the Apache configuration file to contain only the active web names

    sed -i ‘s/RewriteRule ^(Viki|Tech|Business)/RewriteRule ^(Viki|MyWeb)/’
    ./etc/apache/viki

If using [Nginx][], make appropriate changes to the rewrite rule
  documented in [VikiHosting](VikiHosting.html).
  1. Commit your changes to Git
