When I try to set up a "Student" wiki I get a "Wiki has not been created" error.
A "Teacher" wiki creates an initial page describing the Erfurt wiki.
What could cause the error in the first situation?
Is it possible to create a wiki the whole class can collaborate on in a course without groups? How?
I run latest CVS.
Thanks,
Lars.
The group-managament is implemented right now by Mike Churchward. Until that is finished, tehre may be such anomalies.
> Is it possible to create a wiki the whole class can collaborate on in a course without groups? How?
Yes. There is a very special matrice eith Wikitype and Group-Type. If you want the simple "Everyone can edit the Wiki" you need:
- Wikitype: Group (Will maybe renamed into group/course)
- Groups for this activity in the xourse view: No groups

Just checked it with the latest CVS version. It seems to work fine for me. Please make sure that you have the latest version, and the latest data tables. You should completely remove any old 'wiki' modules and resinstall it. It doesn't update automatically, yet.
If you create a 'student' wiki, any student that is 'enrolled' in that course (your test student was enrolled, right?), will create a new wiki when they first access it, using the default content. Note, teachers and administrators are not necessarily enrolled in the course. If this is the case, you would get that error.
I will be implementing the 'view' logic necessary for teachers and administrators soon.

Thanks Mike and Michael,
Things seem to work now - I think it was "operator error"

Originally my Wiki worked but now I get the "Wiki has not been created" error as well. Should I just wait for the next version?
Thanks.

Thanks.

Wiki is still in developement and some options don't work yet (from the student/teacher/group - menu there are some things not working, so the error you got probably is caused by what you choosed in that menu).
M&M are working hard on this module.
Thanks Koen. I was just wondering since it originally was operating normally.

If it meets the requirements I described in previous post here, it should work.
The only way to you should get this error is for a student wiki, where a teacher who is not enrolled in the course (but is a teacher) click on it. Otherwise, you should be creating one.

... wich occurs if you create a wiki as an admin in a course where you're not a teacher, my guess ?
Thanks guys. I switched the settings and it works again now. This is a great addition to Moodle. Do other CMS have similar features, or is this unique to Moodle?
Best,

Tikiwiki has it.., Xoops has it..., but not with these educational fine tuning by M&M
