Reference
The Drawer menu gathers the actions that apply to the whole wiki rather than to the Page you are reading. Open it with the button at the right end of the top bar.
The Drawer is assembled from the extensions installed on your wiki, and it is split in three parts: your account at the top, then a part headed by the current Wiki's name, then a "Global" part for the actions that span the whole Wiki farm.
| Part | Action | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Your account | Your user profile | Opens the profile of the user you are logged in as. |
| "Log-out" | Ends your session. | |
| Current Wiki | "Administer Wiki" | Opens the wiki administration. Shown only to users with administration rights. |
| "Page Index" | Lists every Page of the current Wiki. | |
| "User Index" | Lists the users of the current Wiki. | |
| "Application Index" | Lists the applications installed on the current Wiki. | |
| Global | "Languages" | Switches the language you read the wiki in. Shown only on multilingual wikis. |
| "What's New" | Opens the XWiki news feed. | |
| "Wiki Index" | Lists the Wikis you are part of. |
FAQ
Why do I not see all these actions?
The Drawer only shows what your wiki has installed and what your rights allow: "Administer Wiki" needs administration rights, and "Languages" appears only on a multilingual wiki.
Why is the middle part named after my wiki?
It carries the current Wiki's name, so that on a farm you can tell which Wiki the actions listed under it apply to.
