Using TXP as a (private) wiki with blog frontend

Hi everyone.

I know many people would suggest solutions such as using Dokuwiki, but in my case it’s easier: I need just the admin to have wiki functionalities: that means:

1. for the public, it just needs to look like bunch of articles and a blog
2. for the admin, there needs to be few things.

These would include (1) front-end edit function, (2) ability to create pages by simply linking them. Hopefully something like (3) nested namespaces (or nested categories) would be good too. I don’t really need subversion controls but what would be good to have is (4) tight rss control (such as classifying edits as update/non-update): if this is not feasible, just by category if I could choose I can choose how the feed gets updated.

I have incorporated (1) using rsx_frontend_edit_link. My hunch is that not all of other three would be possible with plugins. Can this be done or am I just wasting my time trying? In the past I generally just used Drupal to meet such needs or just integrate Dokuwiki, but this time around I want to try something different.

  1. Should be pretty simple to figure out. You could probably turn the 404 page into a “create page here?” page pretty easily.
