1The original idea of InterWiki was to have one large distributed [[wp>Wiki]] over the whole net. Today its more of an easy way to link from one wiki to another by having some simple link syntax to do so. 2 3In [[doku>DokuWiki]] this is done by prefixing Wiki [[doku>pagenames]] with a shortcut separated by a ''>'' character. 4 5Examples: 6<code> 7[[wp>Wiki]] links to Wikipedia, 8[[Meatball>TourBusStop]] links to the MeatBall wiki TourBusStop, 9[[google>Wiki]] links to a Google search, 10[[doku>interwiki]] links to this page 11</code> 12 13[[wp>Wiki]] links to Wikipedia, [[Meatball>TourBusStop]] links to the MeatBall wiki TourBusStop, [[google>Wiki]] links to a Google search. 14[[doku>interwiki]] links to this page. 15 16There is one special interwiki shortcut called **''this''**. It always links to the webserver directory DokuWiki is installed in. You can use this to construct relative URLs. For example the following always links to the local [[doku>syndication|XML feed]]: [[this>feed.php]] 17 18<code> 19[[this>feed.php]] 20</code> 21 22**More Info on InterWiki:** 23 24 * [[wp>InterWiki]] at Wikipedia 25 * [[MeatBall>InterWiki]] at MeatBall 26 * [[Wiki>InterWiki]] at c2.com Wiki 27 * [[doku>interwiki]]
