help PmWiki FAQ

What programming language is PmWiki written in?

PmWiki is written in PHP and runs on a web server with PHP support. It is a wiki engine, not a Ghost CMS distribution, despite the catalog classification.

Do I need a database to run PmWiki?

PmWiki is designed to store wiki pages in files rather than requiring a traditional database for its core content. That makes a basic installation relatively simple to host and move.

Can PmWiki be customized with extensions?

Yes, PmWiki supports recipes, skins, and configuration changes for extending the wiki. Administrators can add features while keeping the core software separate from site-specific customizations.

Is PmWiki suitable for a team knowledge base?

Yes, its wiki structure is well suited to documentation, internal guides, and collaboratively edited pages. Access controls can be configured so some groups can read pages while others can edit them.
