A Knowledge Evolution Revolution: Contribute with ease. Watch how information changes over time.

## Description 

A Blicki is a blog and a wiki. The purpose is to create a platform on which anyone can share knowledge. The blicki makes it easy to contribute with a front-end blog editor, while showing how information is added to and evolved.

### Features

* Front-end blog-style editor. No markdown required.

* Anyone can edit. Visitors do not need to create an account to contribute.

* An admin role has the ability to moderate new pages and edits.

* Revision history and stats show at the footer of each blicki entry.

* Links that connect to other entries on your Blicki.

* Each entry has a table of contents. Hello easy navigation.

* Images can be added via hyperlinks. Don’t worry about your Blicki getting weighed down with too much or oversized media.

* The Blicki can be added to previously built sites via a custom post type. You can have a website, a blog, and a blicki all in one!

## Installation 

1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/blicki` directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.

2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress

3. Use the Settings->Plugin Name screen to configure the plugin (?? not sure we’ll have this)

4. Your wiki content can be found by clicking ‘Wiki’ on your dashboard’s sidebar.

## Frequently Asked Questions 

### What if someone shares false knowledge or something that shouldn't be on the Blicki? 

New entries will be submitted for moderation by an appointed admin. Edits to entries will send a notification to the admin to review.

### Do I have to use the wiki markdown language to contribute? 

Nah - we're adding a front-end blog editor, so you can leave the brackets behind.

### Does the Blicki have a theme song? 

Of course! That blicki. That blicki wiki.

### Why is there a C in Blicki?

The 'C' stands for carrot. Also, bliki.com was registered in 1999 and is unavailable. 

### Can I set a blicki page as the front page of my site?

That setting isn't an option right now, and it's for a good reason. The front page of a wiki-style site is a great place to explain the purpose of the site and introduce navigation links around the blicki.

Here's information on creating a static front page:
