Tips & Tricks

Auto-formatting

Auto-formatting is a gift that is hand-picked for all the wiki markup pros out therein eSankalan. Auto-formatting converts the wiki markup you type into the editor to rich text, on the fly. Formatted texts, lists, tables – it all works. There’s also support for macros, links, and images. So, go ahead and use your favorite markup to insert a macro and watch as eSankalan instantly converts it to rich text. Click the image to view…

 

Get Organized with Labels

 

The volume and velocity of content getting added to eSankalan are zooming at high speed.

Let us start getting used to some simple conventions that can make eSankalan a refreshing experience. Adding labels to your content is an easy way, to organize and manage content much efficiently.

Any user with permission to edit a page can add labels to it. Existing labels appear at the bottom-right of the page, below the page content.

To add a label to a page:

While viewing a page or blog, choose the edit icon beside the list of labels.

You can also do this while creating or editing a page, by choosing the label icon at the top of the page.

Type a new label (existing labels are suggested as you type), then click Add.

Search by Label

You can use the labelText: prefix to search for content that has a specific label.

For example, if you're looking for pages with the label ‘GCCLicences’, type ‘labelText: GCCLicences’ into the search field.

Use macros to categorize or display labels:

To make optimal use of ‘Labels’, you can use the Content by Label macro to display different combinations of pages:

For example, if you're working on a project across multiple teams, you can label everything to do with the project with that project name, and use a label to display all that content in one space.

In coming editions of eSankalan, you’ll see more of such best practices. Let's start putting them to practice.
