[Pmwiki-users] Changing To Pmwiki 2.0 dev

Hi folks hope all is well.

I bit the bullet.  I am changing over from my installation of PmWiki 
1.? to the new PmWiki 2.0 dev.  The following markup does not work on 
my updated site :

[[table align=center background: #ffffff; width: 90%']]
[[cell align=center]]
[++'''"Something Goes Here"'''++] \\
[[$Search]]
[[cellnr]]
[[tableend]]

All I want to do is align the [++'''"Something Goes Here"'''++] \\ in 
the middle of the page.  How can I do that?  The old table format does 
not work.  I have looked at the doc's and can't seem to find it 
anywhere and all of my attempts have failed.  Also putting in the 
[[$Search]] doesn't work either is there a new work around?

Finally whenever I put a picture on the page it went to the far right 
of the page and the text after that would simply fill in under the 
original heading.  How do I code the pict so that it can do that again? 
  Here is an example of the old code :

I am *very* happy that I am upgrading now and not later.  The initial 
change over was smooth and easy and I had no problems with the 
installation of 2.0.  However changing over all the information in the 
pages to allow for the new markup is a PITA.   However I do see the 
improved benefits of changing over now.  Just my observations for what 
it's worth.

The improvements?  From what I can see now, they look very promising.  
For someone like myself ( overworked and with very little to no free 
time ) learning the new changes will take time and I am sure will 
easily become second nature eventually.  Getting the cookbook back up 
to speed with all the new changes will be a great help.

Outside of that ...  PmWiki is one of the best tools I have **_EVER_** 
had the privilege of finding on the internet.  So much so that I am 
using it in my Veterinary Practice to keep records on my controlled 
substances, and suppliers and their products.  I am now putting it to 
use as a database on animal health and welfare that I can give to my 
clients to use on their own computers.  It is a wonderful program.  My 
hats off to each and everyone of you for a job well done.

Thanks in advance for all your help


I Hope This Helps ...
Keep Looking Up

Doc
