==Adding a wiki page==
There are several ways to add a new wiki page.  In later versions of Moodle, the course participant's privileges can effect adding or editing wiki pages. 


===Add a wiki activity===
To add a wiki:
When the teacher selects '''Wiki''' from the [[Adding resources and activities|Add an Activity
#As an editing teacher for a course, click "Turn Editing On", and go to the section in which you want to add the wiki.
]] pull down menus in a course, they will be asked to create the first page.
#From the dropdown menu labeled "Add an activity", select "Wiki". This will take you to the wiki settings page titled "Adding a new wiki".

===Add by using search===
In an existing wiki, the wiki settings can be found in ''Settings > Wiki administration > Edit settings''.
Any participant (with correct privileges) of an existing wiki can enter the name of the page they would like to create in the Search box on a wiki page.  For example they might enter the name "Roses".


: If the page already exists
::they will be taken to the page "Roses"
: If the page does not exist, they will see:
:: '''There is no page titled "Roses"'''
::They can create this page by clicking on the "create this page" link
::and begin editing the new page called "Roses"


===From a wiki page===
==Wiki administration settings==


Participants in a wiki can also create a new wiki page by editing an existing page and adding a wiki link to the page they want to create - e.g. <nowiki>[[Roses]]</nowiki>- using brackets.
''Please add descriptions...'''


After either selecting '''Save page'' or '''Show preview''', the participant will then see a clickable link to "Roses"; they or someone else can click on it and begin to edit that page.
===Common module settings===
The [[Common module settings]] section appears in many modules besides wiki.  It sets [[Groups]] interactions levels and the ID number.


==Editing a wiki page==
==Locally assigned roles==
Editing a wiki is simple.
* Click on the '''edit''' tag at the top of the wiki page
* Edit the text
* Use wiki tags for formatting and creating links that are needed
* Then save the page, or preview the page before saving


==Wiki settings==
In ''Settings > Wiki administration > Locally assigned roles'' selected users can be given additional roles in the activity.

The 1.5 Moodle has the "Type" (group, teacher, student) setting in the wiki settings.  The  "Group Mode" setting (No group, seperate groups and visible groups) is a course setting.  The 9 combinations of group and type settings determine what an individual student can see or edit.
==Wiki permissions==


The 1.8 Moodle will have both setting Type (group, teacher, student) and an additional setting called Group Mode (No group, seperate groups and visible groups).
Role permissions for the activity can be changed in ''Settings > Wiki administration > Permissions''.
