Abbreviations and Acronyms
DokuWiki can mark abbreviations and acronyms (terminology) automatically. You can hover your mouse on an abbreviation to see a short explanation, shown as a tooltip. For example, if the mouse is positioned over “CMS” (which is included in the default acronyms list), the tooltip displays Content Management System
.
Some preconfigured examples:
- BTW, FAQ, HTML, WYSIWYG, EOF
Note: only full words will be marked. Eg. an acronym that is used within a word will not result in a acronym tooltip. Example: CMS is an acronym, myCMS is not.
Configuration
- DokuWiki's standard abbreviations are stored in the
conf/acronyms.conf
file. You can add your own abbreviations by creating aconf/acronyms.local.conf
file and placing your abbreviations - The acronyms file has to be encoded in UTF-8.
- Because it is reserved to mark a comment line, a hash (
#
) needs to be escaped by a backslash (\#
)
