Projects-School-A0607/GCVPN is one page (GCVPN) in the
Projects-School-A0607 group.
You can create any number of pages in PmWiki. You can name these pages
almost anything you want. You *cannot* use a slash (/) in a page name
because the slash is used as a separator between groups (descibed below)
and pages.
For example, here are 4 legal page names:
Projects-School-A0607-GCVPN
School-A0607-GCVPN
A0607-GCVPN
GCVPN
Each of these is a different page. There is no relationship between the
pages other than the one readers form in their minds based on the names.
But if you had 3 pages named:
Projects-School-A0203
Projects-School-A0405
Projects-School-A0607
You might decide to arrange them into a page group. PmWiki uses the
prefix Groupname/ to denote groups.
You could organize your pages into a Projects-School group, in which
case you could name them:
Projects-School/A0203
Projects-School/A0405
Projects-School/A0607
Here you have one group (Projects-School) that contains 3 pages (A0203,
A0405, A0607).
Or, you could organize your pages into a Projects group, in which case
you could name them:
Projects/School-A0203
Projects/School-A0405
Projects/School-A0607
Here you have one group (Projects) that contains 3 pages (School-A0203,
School-A0405, School-A0607).
