Mmm. I tested the install instructions on a clean PmWiki install,
but as you note below, it may interfere with other local 
customisations.

The order I have used successfully is:

- any overrides to PmWiki's default variables
- include wikifarm-pre.php
- include other local customisations
- include wikifarm-post.php

Not out of the box, but it should be possible. It has to do some juggling
to get shared groups (such as Profiles references in Page History) to
display correctly. You might need a Field.wikibak.d directory for each 
field.

I'll have a look.

Yes. It looks for local/wikifarm/Fieldname.config.php

If you check, you will see there is an example that gives the demo
field its background colour. If it's installed correctly, when you
go to the Main.HomePage of the demo field, it has different text and 
a different bqackground colour to the normal Main.HomePage.

That can be changed easily enough.

I have a new version to upload, so will amend the directory names.
