Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware continues to progress.

This site is used for early "dogfooding" or testing of the code with real content, so please let us know of any problems with the appearance and function here.

Site is upgraded at each Tiki release but we forgot to add a note here for 21.x and 22.x

Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware continues to progress. Thanks to everyone who works on the project and supports it by using Tiki, giving feedback, contributing to the docs, making financial contributions (yes, that does happen ).

Yay for the new dogfood!
The site was switched to 19.x branch (thanks luci), and we can thoroughly test Bootstrap 4 work with real data!

Yay for the new dogfood!
The site was switched to 18.x branch (thanks Amette) so we can enjoy the latest LTS bells and whistles.

We have also switched the SEFURLs from classic Tiki links scheme with spaces (+) to dashes (as on the rest of tiki.org sites family). We have an issue from the past where some links were generated with "%B2" instead of "+" though — trying to figure that out now to prevent Google results with broken links.

The site has been upgraded regularly as Tiki increments onward, and no blog posts were written to draw attention to the Tiki 16 iteration. But now we're at 17.0. Check out the new features and improvements listed at https://doc.tiki.org/Tiki 17.

It was recently pointed out that this site doesn't showcase the themes that are bundled with Tiki (and there are a bunch of them) as well as it used to. The aftermarket themes in the Themes Marketplace have sort of elbowed them out. But we can add a section to that page or similar to let people see the themes that come with the Tiki package as well as those that can be installed afterwards.

The site is now running what will be the new Long Term Support version of Tiki. There is a list of changes and updates here: https://doc.tiki.org/Tiki15.

There are no new themes in this version but new themes will be available soon for use with Tiki 15.

Themes.tiki.org is now using the Tiki 14 beta release. This version continues with further integration of the Bootstrap CSS framework, and other enhancements such as to trackers. The general reaction when a Tiki site is upgraded to Tiki 13 (the first release incorporating Bootstrap) or 14 is very positive, I think it's fair to say. The page generally opens up with larger text and more white space, in step with current web design and the trend to higher-resolution displays.

In parallel with the version upgrade, the content of this site is being organized, with old information that has only historical usefulness being categorized as "retired" and not available except to logged-in users.

New content about the revamped arrangement of theme-related files and about making themes for Tiki in this Bootstrap era is also being added, and will continue to be, in more detail. My own impression is that updating an old (pre-Tiki 13) theme to a current version is an easier upgrade process than has usually been the case between big-change Tiki versions. This is due to the ease of using Less variables. The procedure will be spelled out in detail shortly.

We'll also be taking a look at converting a "Bootstrap 3" theme from WordPress or Joomla, etc.to Tiki.
