Question

Hey

I am trying to use a wiki word such as

Computer_1.5.4.274.88

However twiki reformats the wiki word as Computer_1/5/4/274/88 .

Is there a way I can force wiki to use the format I want.

I guess the twiki word format is defined somewhere in a perl file??

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Andrew

No. The . is used by TWiki as a subweb separator, so it looks for topic 88 in web 274 in web 4 in web 5 in web Computer_1. frown

You can try switching off hierarchical web support in configure to see if that helps. But it probably won't.

BTW the regexes are all defined in lib/TWiki.pm.

To avoid upgrade hassles I do not recommend to change the WikiWord rule.

You are probably looking for an InterwikiPlugin rule. Define a rule for "Computer" that auto-links Computer:1-5-4-274-88 to Computer-1-5-4-274-88.

If you want a custom link rule you can write a plugin that does that.
