Creating Wiki Pages from Existing Documents
Without Images
  • Copy and paste the text straight in. You may have to use ctrl+V or paste icon to paste in wiki
With Images
Images need to be stored online.
  • If the data is already on a webpage, copy and paste it straight in and it should work as long as that webpage is up.
  • If not, use your gmail account and go to documents, uplaod the document then open and copy and paste into the wiki
  • Otherwise do it the hard way
If not, we need to store them in sharepoint.
Saving a document as a web page creates a folder full of images alongside the new web page in your local folder.
The created folder name is the same as the document name with _files after it.
Sharepoint hates that underscore.
In the following, replace FileNameOnly with the name of your document
  • Make sure the document has no blank spaces or undersores in it, eg FileNameOnly.doc, not 'File Name Only.doc'
  • save it as a webpage (not a single page webpage which is the default, these dont work either)
To get rid of the underscore in the folder, you need to change the references in the htm document before changing the file name, or the document is deleted.
  • Open the new web document in frontpage or notepad etc and edit replace (ctrl+H) all instances of the FileNameOnly_files' with 'FileNameOnlyfiles'
  • Save it then rename the folder with the same name, eg FileNameOnlyfiles
  • In sharepoint, create a folder called FileNameOnly
  • Inside that folder , click upload file and upload your htm file
  • Create a folder inside FileNameOnly called FileNameOnlyfiles
  • Inside FileNameOnlyfiles upload multiple documents and select all the images.
  • Open the htm file from inside sharepoint and Ctrl+A Ctrl+C to highlight and copy all.
  • Create the wiki page to hold the data, and ctrl+v in edit mode.
Done
