Cannot change page parent of new wiki entries (7 posts)

    Installed the wiki, and it seems to be working. Having a small issue with interaction with my template, but my big concern is that I cannot change the page parent of any wiki entries, they all live under the main page. When I try to select a new page, none of them appear, so I don't even have the option to change it.

    Did you create a Standard page first? That is what I did here:
    http://quirm.net/wiki/ with a shortcode of [wikilist] in the content.

    then all subsequent wiki pages are added via the custom post type, and are picked up and displayed there. When editing a wiki page you should see the 'Attributes' box to allow you to choose a parent wiki page.

    Nope. The only attribute option is "Order". And I can't change the template of the entry either.

    Check the screen options tab, you should see the following:

    Yes, they are all there. Not sure how that's relevant. There's still only the "order" option available in the Attributes box, nothing about a parent wiki page.

    It only lists wiki pages, have you created any yet?

    I made a wiki (main)page with several child pages. In the attribute pane when adding a new wiki page I can not set a template. In the quick edit I get the option to set a template but it seems to be ignored. It wont get saved, it stays on default template.

    Also the page with the short-code [wikilist] has the template I want to use for the wiki but wiki keeps using the default template.

    What else can I try
