Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Automatic Table of Contents?I just read over all the replies a second time. I like the idea of creating a new page for each page (like in my original document). That would be about 30 or 40 pages total.
Originally that was what I set out to do. But I *thought* I found out that you had to use the <!–nextpage–> thing to break up the pages. So I started over.
I’d like to go back and start again and create a new WP page for each page of my document. But – after readining these posts – I’m still confused as to how I tie them together.
Maybe WP is over my head.

In reply to: Automatic Table of Contents?This is the documentation I want to convert.

As you can see, it’s relatively lengthy. At least compared to a typical web article that is 2 or 3 pages.
I don’t think I care if I create 1 page, or 40 pages as long as it works. Actually, 40 separate pages would probably be a lot easier to maintain than 1 uber page. But I need it to appear as 1 logical document when I’m done.

Here is what I have converted over so far. It’s incomplete and some of the links are broken. Right now I’m just trying to figure out the best way to bring it all together so that I can minimize the amount of rework. This document is also ongoing so I would like to have as much automation as possible with it. i.e. Auto table of contents with links to the relevant sections. If I need to insert a page in the middle, or remove a page somewhere, I don’t want to have to manually edit all the links to all the pages.

In reply to: Best Image Gallery PluginIs there a WP plugin for Gallery that just makes Gallery integrate into WP from a look and feel point of view? I don’t necessarily need or want to include links to thumbnails from my blog. I just want users to be able to view my Gallery without feeling like they are leaving one part of my site for another.

In reply to: Previous/Next for Pages@kafkaesqui: I think I figured out what I needed. I just needed the <!–next-page–> comment to separate my pages. WP seems to have a navigation system built-in. I thought I needed to submit a new page for each page I wanted to be displayed. I didn’t realize I only needed to create 1 “page”. My only worry though is that when I finish this page, I’ll have a Pages: section at the bottom that is 3 lines long. i.e. “Pages: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27” and so on out to about 40 something pages.

In reply to: Automatic Table of Contents?Hmm…. are you sure you are replying to my question and not someone elses? I’m asking about having a Table of Contents.
For example, when you click on the page, the first thing you would see would be (something like) this.
1. Introduction
2. Hardware Overview
3. Basic Installation
4. Advanced Installation
5. Closing CommentsPages: 1 2 3 4 5

In reply to: Previous/Next for PagesI have a documenation “project” that I want to move over to Word Press. It has about 25 to 30 pages total.
I’m reading over these posts about a next/previous link for pages and I still don’t understand what I’m supposed to do. When I copy and paste the PHP code into my page, I just see the actual PHP code when I go back to my page – it doesn’t show me a “Next >>” hyperlink.
