I will add my first page later, on signup it gave an unable to send verification email error but has allowed me to signup and in, I will have a read up later on adding categories etc.
i ran out of steam last night so i didn't configure PHP mailer and a few other pieces. I'll do that today most likely.
As for extensions, just let me know what they are called and i will turn them on. I didn't enable any extensions last night, as it was my first media wiki install and i just wanted to see it run.
I forgot to thank you... The wiki already makes me feel better, feels like breathing fresh air from mountains, feeling alive, even though not much content in it yet.

Yeah, clear it mate, your doing a wonderful job, @jongos@hbf , your amazing guys the wiki is turning into exactly the sort of thing, the sort of way I envisioned in fact it's far better than I could have produced, Am very glad two seasoned pros have got involved, I think it really will connect vanilla to the masses, like I said above, there are plenty of people with good ideas and this will help them realise what it is they want to do, my hat is off to you both.
Oh, command column was just for a visual pointer if looking at the code, so decent explanations negate the need anyway, would have made more sense to put line numbers but they change to much.
Maybe in a month or so. Doing eighteen hour days to get new site launched.
Fortunately our 422 project which cost upwards of 350k to develop has a lot of functionality we can shoehorn into new framework.
I am project managing at the moment, of the 100+ templates ive made, only about a dozen left to do...
Soon as new site is solely in the php guys hands, i will get more involved here. I really like what you guys have done though.
Layout puzzling me a little at this point, not sure why webmasters bit is up before the programming bit, as the info conveyed by that section should pretty much be known by the point people are looking at the community wiki, was gonna say the same about designers section, but realised I myself styled my Vanilla install before I looked at extending it so that's probably in the right place, but I really think the content panel at the top should return as it gives a great initial overview and sits with the point of being able to jump right to where you want to be at.
Regarding the arrangement between Webmaster-Designer-Developer, I changed it because there's too much information for Developers.
And since the default theme for Mediawiki, doesn't give headers very good spacing and sizing especially when all kind of headers are there plus the short paragraphs, all makes it looks not so legible, so I move the part with most information down.
I mean, in the original arrangement, it's fine on the top section.
But as you go down, there's too much horizontal line, too much small headers and big headers too.

Thanks mate.

I hope it garners interest by more parties.
-- to any Vanilla.org staff - if you want to re-host this in the future just let me know.
As far a is know, the extensions have been installed. Give 'em a try.

@dodgerid
mate, can you take a look at http://www.homebrewforums.net/vanillawiki/index.php/Event_List
I've moved your list of event hooks there....
The original table is at the discussion page of the same topic : http://www.homebrewforums.net/vanillawiki/index.php/Talk:Event_List
See if it's okay because I removed the command column, maybe there's a reason you put the column in in the first place.
If all is good I want to clear the discussion page...
Let me know.

Well done.
If you want to display hierarchal charts you could use, http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4151695/html/jOrgChart/example/example.html

Nice... That would be very useful, I could copy class hierarchy from Doxygen docs in UL format...
Thanks, nice input.
I've used the pre tags with class=prettyprint but doing nothing, have tried straight forward code tags too but nothing.
I'm doing the class listing... but maybe finish in one or two days.
Got to finish the page on Events first.
First tutorial added, could do with touching up but it's a good starting point.
@hbf
Google's Prettify does not work.
Maybe you could try deactivate the plugin, and try install it manually.
ie. Just include the javascript and css into the header by editing the template.

What do you think ?
P.S. Loving the event explanation.
WIll put back TOC into the main page.
