'''PmWiki''' is a highly advanced | '''PmWiki''' is a highly advanced, fully featured, and continuously developed {{tag|wiki engine}}, written in {{tag|PHP}}. It was created in {{tag|Founded in 2001|2001}}[https://www.PmWiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/WikiGroupMotivation] by Dr Patrick R. Michaud ([[PmWiki:Profiles/Pm|Pm]]) from [[:Category:France|France]], and is released as {{tag|free software}} under version 2 of the {{tag|GNU General Public License}} (GPLv2). All [[wiki]] site data is stored in [[PmWiki:PmWiki/FlatFileAdvantages|flat files]], and the core wiki engine can be customised by adding extensions, which PmWiki call 'recipes' that are available from their '[[PmWiki:Cookbook/Cookbook|Cookbook]]'. PmWiki is visually vaguely similar to [[:Category:MediaWiki|MediaWiki]]; having a [[sidebar]] for wiki navigation, and individual page commands (view, [[edit]], [[Edit history|history]], print) at the top right (but without 'tabs'). PmWiki supports most of the established [[:Category:Wiki syntax|wiki syntax]], including [[CamelCase]] (now disabled by default), [[free link]]s, [[backlink]]s, [[interwiki]], and [[sister wiki]]. Page rendering appears to be clean and fast, and is also [[:Category:Wikis with a mobile-view site|mobile]] friendly. One {{tag|great feature}} of PmWiki is that no existing data is lost or corrupted during separate simultaneous attempts at editing the same page; PmWiki will automatically merge these attempted [[PmWiki:PmWiki/SimultaneousEdits|simultaneous edits]], thus preventing the dreaded '[[edit conflict]]' which occurs on more complex engines such as MediaWiki. | ||

The [[ | The [[:Category:Meta|meta]] wiki homepage for PmWiki.org here on WikiIndex is [[PmWiki]], and its Chinese localised version is [[PmWikiZhCn]]. PmWiki is available in [[PmWiki:PmWiki/OtherLanguages|thirty-eight (38)]] different [[:Category:Wiki language|interface languages]]. There is a page for all [[PmWiki:PmWiki/PmWikiUsers|PmWiki users]] (wiki sites), along with a [[PmWiki:PmWiki/PmWikiUsers-Map|PmWiki users map]] (originally using [[:Category:Google Maps|Google Maps]], now using [[OpenStreetMap Wiki|OpenStreetMap]]), and the [[PmWiki:PmWiki/SuccessStories|success stories]] page highlights vibrant PmWiki installs with extended descriptions along with (sometimes) a screenshot. The [[PmWiki:PmWiki/FailureStories|failure stories]] highlights some of the few hurdles of PmWiki that some [[user]]s had difficulties with. | ||
