The 1.5 Moodle has the "Type" (group, teacher, student) setting in the wiki settings.  The  "Group Mode" setting (No group, separate 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.
In an existing wiki, the wiki settings can be found in ''Settings > Wiki administration > Edit settings''.


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).

CamelCase notation describes multiple words, joined together without spaces, separated by changes in case. The uppercase and lowercase letters show up like the humps of camels. It is often also called BumpyText because it could look like CaMeL_CaSe.


Autolinking is not always desirable.   Some text is writen in CamelCase. For example a file name might be MyFile_2007_Feb.jpg.
