I noticed that the main Dokuwiki site has some code to authenticate against the Drupal database here. I suspect the code I've been using with the nodalpoint wiki may not be current with Dokuwiki's authentication framework.

how to ?

I want to setup drupal and dokuwiki for a project (not related to bioinformatics). I was wondering if you could leave a small how to on your wiki or on the dokuwiki wiki.

Good start...

I think the Nodalpoint Wiki will be a really great addition to Nodalpoint !! Congratulations and keep up the good work.

I don't mind at all :)

I don't mind at all :)

The authentication problems that people were reporting has been fixed. The issue was spaces in the group names that Drupal uses (Drupal actually assigns users roles rather than groups). The wiki system (Dokuwiki) had to be patched to match names with blank spaces. For those who are interested I've had a lot of success running Dokuwiki in my current lab and highly recommend it. The developer has managed to get just the right balance of features and usability.

The general idea with the nodalpoint wiki was to have a place to put articles, posts etc. which might benefit from a group of people adding changes over time. I made an attempt to get this underway with the bioinformatics hacks pages. I just added another: Bioinformatics hacks for the semantic web.

Greg is a busy lad just now - I'm sure he won't mind my announcing the new Nodalpoint Wiki. Built using the fabulous DokuWiki, we'd like this to complement the main site by providing a place for collaborative articles, site documentation, coding tips and tricks or whatever you like.

You can login with your Nodal username and password - give it a try and let us know what you think.

Update: The wiki is now fully operational. Previously only admins were able to login and edit pages, this has now been fixed (the problem was due to a bug in the authentication code). Check out the Entrez programming utilities hacks and BLAST hacks. Feel free to contribute.
