Mod tikidav

This page describes a mods. For the core implementation: WebDAV


TikiDav allows access to the TikiWiki resources ( wiki pages, blogs, Articles...) through the WebDAV protocol. A lot of author tools like OpenOffice (OOo) and MsOffice, implements that protocol to access remote document repositories.

It's only proven to work with Tiki 1.9.x and OpenOffice .sxw document types, and some work is needed to update it to support ODF file types. It used to work also with MS Word.
