Question

Is possible to change the formatting of the BumpyWord? I would like to insert a space between the different parts of the BumpyWord, e.g. Bumpy Word. Also, I would like to indicate a missing page by color only and discard the question mark after the BumpyWord. Actually, I would like to have a similar formatting as in wikipedia, which, I feel, would make the text more readable and, hence, would be more userfriendly.

Gruezi Stefan,

You can configure the style of links to non-existing pages, see TWikiPreferences#Miscellaneous_Settings

The TWiki core has no feature to space out WikiWords, but there is a SpacedWikiWordPlugin that does that.

See also VarSPACEOUT, $PROPERSPACE() of SpreadSheetPlugin.

Personally I think that the MediaWiki style of page linking has a better flow when reading text. We could change the default link style in TWiki. Are you a developer, tech writer or marketeer with interest in open source? As a contributor you can actively make a difference and help shape the product. To get started:
