    Hi,

    I'm working in a branch of a huge company. This branch would like to get a more efficient documentation management. That's why, i have to migrate their system (a shared drive) to a wiki based solution.
    I'm considering some wiki engines to build this solution amd TikiWiki is in my short list.
    But after having read the features, i still have questions about TikiWiki's possibilities :

    * Is there anything to manage topics's workflow (to i;plement their ISO9001 compliant management) ?
    * Do TikiWiki has any existing plugin to be able to use digital signature to sign some topics or access to some topics ?
    * What are the possibilities in terms of charts or spreadsheet in TikiWiki ?

    I have other questions about the scalability and performances of TikiWiki. Are there maximum of users registered, connected, of pages, of attacments... ?

    Best regards

    Hi gbardy:

    I answer the only question I can answer:

    > * What are the possibilities in terms of charts or spreadsheet in TikiWiki ?

    You can red the documentation pages, starting from
    http://doc.tikiwiki.org/Spreadsheet

    onwards, as far a Spreadsheet is concerned.

    Nowadays, only 4 types of graphs are allowed (Graphics and Charts), but others could be added if requested to the main coder (Luis Phillippe Huberdeau), I guess.

    Hi gbardy,

    As you can use TikiWiki with an existing LDAP, I don't think that there is a limit for registered users. The same thing for pages and attachments, Tiki is using DB as backend so that the limit for pages is the performance of the used DB.

    Tiki has a Galaxia Workflow engine, I don't sure if you could solve your problem with this, but you could have a look for that either using this search or the official page for the workflow: http://workflow.tikiwiki.org/

    I havent't heared about a digital signature plugin for tikiwiki yet. But I'm sure that this shouldn't be a problem to implement one as you could use for signing one of the free available implementations like gnupg or openssl.

    As I'm also very interesting in information about tikiWiki in real companies life, it will be great if you could write to us if you will starting to implement this project 😊

    Cheers,
    Eduard Mann

    Tiki is excellent as a wiki-centric Intranet. All the features + fine-grained permission levels.


    > * Is there anything to manage topics's workflow (to i;plement their ISO9001 compliant management) ?

    No. But it's open source so you can implement and share 😊 (Using workflow.tikiwiki.org as a base)


    > * Do TikiWiki has any existing plugin to be able to use digital signature to sign some topics or access to some topics ?

    I am not sure what you have in mind. Each user has a unique login so you can control who does and sees what.

    There is TikiSheet but it probably needs some debugging for large-scale use. (to work with all browsers)

    There are also some new features for calculated fields in trackers (very recent in 1.10)

    No maximum.

    You can have tens of thousands of users. You could reach some bottlenecks for certain less popular features. In which case, some code optimization may be necessary. However, for popular features like the Wiki, you will be fine for sure.

    I have a wiki with 250 000 pages running on a basic shared hosting account.
    tikiwiki.org has 12000+ Registered users.

    Best regards

    Semi-off topic note:
    This was long awaited improvement in trackers, Marc! (congratulations!) Where can we see more info about it? (any doc. page updated about it? )

    About the digital signature, my idea is to use the digital signatures of the users (coming from the card they insert in tehir computers), to be able to sign the documents : it would formally attests that they signed it like if it was on a sheet of paper.
    Until now, i haven't seen any wiki implementing this functionality and the only one wanting to implement it is Confluence...
    If you have ideas about that...

    If I hear of something, I will remember to post here 😊
