==Structure of the Wiki==<br />
Talking with Matt and Jim, they thought the wiki wasn't well enough structured. The last useful forum post above (msg266190)<br />
is a collection of tips and tricks. Where does it fit?<br />
<br />
Matt thought manuals were useless except as sources of shortcut keystroke definitions.<br />
<br />
Any ideas? [[User:Gateley|Gateley]] 11:10, 26 February 2007 (CST)<br />
<br />
Jaguu suggested http://www.snom.com/wiki/index.php/Snom300 as a good model,<br />
it looks very nice, and one thing I like a lot is the little images in each category.<br />
<br />
[[User:Marko|marko]] 13:30, 29 March 2007 (CDT): How about a "start here" page that would ask "what would you like to learn about?" type questions? The snom.com approach is very easy to digest. very nice indeed.<br />
<br />
from here the wiki could take the user along paths dedicated to things such as tivo, HTPC, library management, remote control, etc. etc.<br />
I feel that no matter what, every user should first be encouraged to learn and understand the library foundations; viewschemes, smartlists, playlists, search filters etc. etc. and how each element can be combined so as to arrive at a desired subset of files, displayed in a desired fashion, and subsequently, how these subsets can be deployed in the various arenas that MEDIA CENTER plays in.<br />
<br />
In case a user gets ahead of themselves, when entering a topic, you could show them links to information or techniques that they need to understand before anything that follows makes any sense to them?<br />
<br />
Is it not possible to get external links to open in a new browser tab/window?<br />
<br />
Nice thoughts Marko - no idea on the new tab/window, I searched the documentation and couldn't find anything. [[User:Gateley|Gateley]] 15:36, 29 March 2007 (CDT)<br />
