Subject: I Don't Get It
DokuWiki is supposed to be a popular wiki right after MediaWiki. So, it has to have a ton of users
I'd like to know after all this time why does it have so many irritating issues?
For instance, no changes I make in the configuration settings have any effect whatsoever.
In local.php I have the name of my site "My Open Wiki Site". In the admin Configuration on the site I have it also set to the same thing.
Yet, on the site it appears as "My Ope Wik Site". I cleared everything on Chrome (cookies, cache, etc, everything that's an option) and relaunched it - no change. I deleted the entire cache folder contents on Doku - no change. I tried changing the name in local.php and Configuration manager but - again - no change.
In another case I had to rename the tpl_footer to keep the buttons from appearing because commenting out the button code in it did nothing. Even though I could inspect the page as loaded and see that it was commented out and all the above chache/cookie clears were done again - the buttons still loaded.
It seems as though the changes I make are just being ignored - even when I switch the browser to Edge or IE11.
I have checked and rechecked folder access settings, etc. but no joy.
I have to believe someone out there had this problem and fixed it - otherwise Doku wouldn't be as popular as it is. I love the code and the look and feel - if only I could change something and have it cycle through - just one time.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
