Dolphin Documentation. How to Install.. FAQ .. Troubleshooter

It is here at BoonEx Trac. The Docs section is updated by BoonEx Team very often. Although members are claiming there is no Dolphin Documentaion.

Here is the link to BOONEX.COM -> SUPPORT -> TRAC DOLPHIN DOCUMENTATION to reveal it.

We know it is not perfect. And we would highly appreciate any kind of help improving Dolphin Documentation section in Trac. You may help to expand Dolphin Documentation to be more "user-friendly", informative, etc.

If you have suggestions, questions, propose clarifications, changes on how to improve Dolphin Documentation, post them in comments or contact me by sending me an email or PM. Also, we welcome your help in translating of the existing Docs into your language. Contact me about advice on how to move forward..

Constructive criticism is accepted only.

If you are still here for whining and bitching around without any reason and without doing anything valuable this thread is not into you! Please don't take any offence then!

Any chance of switching to Tiki Wiki for D7 documentation? It would be a much better platform to use for this. If you give us a more robust platform like this for documentation editing, I would be much more likely to contribute my time. Your documentation will be as good as the tools you have to work with. I really think Dolphins technical documentation needs to be taken to the next level, with ample screen shots and tutorial videos. There are some pretty well known names on the list of Tiki-Wiki see more

We have wiki setup coming along with Trac system. It is not so flexible but it is there and working.

Why don't you use to write or edit articles in current wiki?

Not only within Unity we are missing a good wiki system, in D7 this a missing change.
The faq system is not good for most of us. So I think (thanks Houston) Tiki Wiki would be the best choice to intergrade in both,

Well, that needs to be clarified in more expanded details. As I proposed you can contact me or write down your suggestions how to improve it.

Tiki-Wiki would be a bit too much for D7.

i am with houstonlively on this one. in order to attract those who would participate, one would need to bring the platform out of the dark ages. wiki in its prime was king, however, times have changed, and as Dolphin has been developed and changed its platform, so should the tools in which are expected to provide the information.

TIKI-WIKI for Unity Platform - Aye

I am really hoping this will develop into something more comprehensive similar to the Wordpress Codex. http://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page

You may already know this, but having comprehensive and accessible documentation keeps the complaints and customer service requests at bay. If Wordpress cost money, I would purchase it in a heartbeat simply because of their open, and easy to understand knowledge base/codex.

Considering that a prime license is almost $1000, I am surprised that this wasn't see more

That's very good remark. We know about Wordress Codex and look at it doing Dolphin Docs comprehensive too as much as we can.

Anyway, here's a good demo of TikiWiki in action: http://twbasics.keycontent.org/tiki-index.php

My reply: I won't use it for the same reason I wouldn't use a horse and buggy to get around, or attack enemy tanks with trebuchets . If you want to bring Dolphin documentation out of the dark ages, you'll have to bring the authoring tools out of the dark ages first. You might find some folks around here see more
