Bookshelf combines wiki pages to create books and also to export all or some of those pages as a PDF document.

Usage / features

  • Sets of different pages (chapters) can be put together individually to create a book.
  • The table of contents of the book is displayed in the left navigation bar.
  • The chapters are displayed in a collapsible tree structure.
  • The book or parts of the book can be exported to PDF.
  • Some aspects of this extension can be customized in the configuration management.

Characteristics of books

Books have the following characteristics:

  • On book pages, the book navigation is displayed instead of the main navigation.
  • A wiki page can be in multiple books. If a page is in multiple books, the book navigation shows a dropdown menu that allows to switch between these books.
  • Books can be printed completely or partially as a PDF with a cover sheet.
  • Books can be grouped into individual bookshelves.

Administration

Wiki administrators can configure the following settings here:

  • Book numbering is prefixed to the page table of contents and headings.
  • The namespace prefix of book pages can be suppressed in the PDF output.
  • The display title from the book source can be used as the display title of the wiki page.
