Version 1 is focused on using the actual wiki block only (search for /wiki). So no, you cannot turn any block into a wiki. Also, for now only basic formatting and image uploading is available. This is enough for most blog articles or text-heavy website sections. ### What happens if I disable the plugin? Your content remains intact. There are clean up options in the settings. There is also the ability to clean up everything on uninstall if you would like. ### Can I control who can make changes? Absolutely! You can set permissions globally and per-block for suggesting changes, browsing history, and merging versions. ### Is this compatible with my theme? Yes, Wiki Blocks is designed to work with any WordPress theme and follows WordPress coding standards. ### Can I export version history? Version history is stored in the database and can be exported using standard WordPress database export tools. ### What if I want to remove all wiki data? The plugin includes an uninstall option that can completely remove all wiki data when the plugin is deleted. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Wiki Blocks” is open source software.
