3 Ways to Create a New Knowledge Base

You can have as many knowledge bases as you want in your JotSpot wiki. There are three ways to create a new knowledge base. They differ in their flexibility in choosing which page displays the KB.

2. Intermediate: Apply a Form

You can create a new page anywhere in your wiki and then use the More Actions menu to apply a form to your new page. This will effectively "install" a KB on that page. You can configure your KB by editing the page.
Note: any existing page content will be hidden. Please choose the KBInstallForm.

3. Advanced: Use the <include> Tag

This is a more advanced option for developers or those comfortable with script markup. You can include a forum anywhere on any page by adding the following line of script to your wiki. Be sure to fill in your own information for each parameter.
(Note: make sure the include is actually one long line -- you can't have line breaks in the tag!)

<wiki:include node="KBMain" kbTitle="Give your Knowledge Base a title" kbDescription="Fill in your description" 
                            showNewArticleButton="true" />
