The blog and opensource templates are looking good. We need a bunch of little changes to make page-based forums work really well, and then we need to add a way to create new sites based on a template. In the meantime, I've started on the third template site: monobook-template.wikidot.com. Update: renamed wiki-template to monobook-template.
If you've been using Wikidot to create a 'classic' wiki, tell us what you find most useful. Better still, join the template site and add your favorite features. For example, the "Image + footnote" package that Timothy Foster posted, based on work done by Brunhilda and others.
There's an amazing amount of knowledge stored up in the community howtos. With packages and template sites we have a way of getting this power into the hands of people who are just starting to use Wikidot.
For the wiki template I used Fereal's Monobook, mainly because it has full documentation. Dodgy Monkey's MonoDot is also appealing, because it's so simple.
So, a competition… We're going to award a Pro account gift to each of the three people who make the best contributions to the wiki template site. Employees of Wikidot Inc. are excluded :-) The judge of when the template is ready, and who wins the prizes, will be me. Join the site: early joiners will, if I like their work, get admin status and the ability to clone the site. If you're already a Pro user, you probably know people who deserve that gift.
Wow, who would think you could actually make Wiki's with Wikidot! =)

As of this moment, the comment count above is "6" when mine is only the second comment. The comment count on the front page is accurate (probably because it's updated on the fly by ListPages).
Jeez! That's the 3rd time I've used "on the fly" in a post today! ;)

I'm thinking that the comment count is updated (background page recompile) when comments are added, but not when they are deleted (which is what happened here).

Can you employ another of Timothy Foster's tricks for the main page?
Then change
to:
It would clean up the display of that section. Once I earn enough points to be an admin, I'll do this kind of stuff myself! ;)
Thanks,

@Ed, you are now admin, and sorry for not doing that earlier.
I'm going to add Timothy's nice "hide the weird stuff" trick to my rainbow styles. Very nice.
Portfolio
Thanks for the admin bump. No need to apologize. I was barely a member long enough for you to notice!
I added Timothy's trick and tested it. I think it's really cool and more professional.
On an unrelated note, I really, really like the ListPages trick using nav:side. I was wondering why you chose to use %%title%% instead of %%content%%? (I saw you were waffling when I looked at the history)
After thinking about it, I think I'd prefer %%content%% so that links and other wikidot syntax can be part of the snippet displayed. For example:
Expert tip #12: Tip: Learn to use the ListPages Module; arguably the most powerful module available
Or, do you think that is a bad spot to create links and mess with the syntax?
-Ed

I was thinking the same thing just now, but in the end I thought that it was probably a bad spot to put any links, so I left it alone.
I've added several of those types of links to the "help" page, and a new tip that suggests the user visit that page. Is that a good compromise? =)

For the snippets, I started with showing content but the user interface was unpleasant, asking for both a title and a 1-line content. By showing the title I could use NewPage to create the snippet. Links will show if you use http://, which I did for one of them. We can add more snippets, they should be useful to eventual contributors to the site.

I like the slogan "more than just a wiki" (how true, yet how simple!), but I'm puzzled by the capital letter in "Wiki". Why? The same happens with the default license text at the bottom of the page, "Unless stated otherwise Content of this page is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 License". I always wondered why "Content" starts with a capital letter…

I guess the slogan should be "More Than Just a Wiki" (title case) and some of the caps got left off.
"Content" in the footer is perhaps meant to look slightly legalistic. Capitalising defined terms is quite common in contracts.
Portfolio
If I may make just make a couple of comments on the design used for http://wiki-template.wikidot.com. It will be a big step forward for new users to start their sites with that instead of the basic design they currently get. That is a very good thing.
But I'm really not convinced that designing the template to look exactly like wikipedia and very similar to wikimedia (and all the projects associated with wikimedia) is a very good idea. This is wikidot ("I am wikidot", "no I am wikidot", "I am wikidot and so is my wife" - paraphrasing Monty Python 1979). Wikidot is not either of those other inferior products. By basing the design on them I readily accept that you make people feel at home who have used those sites before, but you seriously risk diluting the wikidot brand.

This is a good analysis. The wikimedia emulation is a poor thing: no comment-based discussion for example. I think the purpose of this template is twofold:
Personally, I'd not want to use this site for my own projects though it's been great fun making it. One of the reasons I love Wikidot is exactly that it's not mediawiki.
So, and this is why I spoke of "cloning the site" (I meant, to fork it), this template will be one of several "wiki" templates, and perhaps should be renamed to "monobook-template".
Thanks for the feedback. Maybe you can summarise what you'd expect to see in a wiki template?

Here's a list of template sites we're working on.
I expect we'll have 12-20 when we're finished and ready to integrate into the wikidot.com site creator. I'd also expect eventually to offer professional templates.

I have been away and internetless for about a week only to come back to find I've been mentioned. Yay! :-)
Despite being a little peeved that the navi-bar hasn't improved yet, I am glad that my theme is being noticed: I will be adding many different variations in the coming weeks.
Viva La Dot!!!
I'd like to make a second wiki template that is based on monodot.
Portfolio
Done: http://monodot-template.wikidot.com. Feel free to join and copy useful stuff from Riki the Wiki for R.
Portfolio
ok, thanks. I will help make it better but it doesn't appear to have changed from the default template. I could probably be of more use if I am able to edit the CSS though (is this possible?).
You, leiger, and donlung are all hereby promoted to admin of this site. Uh, donlung, use it or lose it. :-)

I can not configure the blog how do I?
