[QUOTE="pbb, post: 110461, member: 26308"] Actually, YES they are. But to use this "download" as a offline documentation will require work. I see two possibilities: [LIST] [*]A proper "backup" of the Wiki would contain all content in it's wiki format. I don't know if an offline version of MoinMoinWiki exists which could be used to display the files as an offline help file. [*]Another possibility is a so-called "web page scraper", which could download the pages in HTML code and create a HTML-based helpfile of it. Again, I don't know if such software already exists. [/LIST] In my experience, option 2 would have the biggest chance. Could probably even be done with a simple scriptfile on any machine with client-side access to the Wiki. Come to think of it, MediaPortal does not come with an included manual, which I think is a big miss. But does it really have to be an offline manual? How about a MediaPortal plugin that can access the MediaPortal wiki? (Possibly just read-only to start with.) Actually sounds like a great idea to me! I am helping! 124 edits in the last 30 days! :cool: A list of "missing pages", which may be a bit overwhelming, can be found here: [url]http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/WantedPages[/url] But the best approach I think is just use the wiki to find information you need, and along the way create missing pages, correct errors, and extend where needed.
