Hi, I think it is on its way to be a great module. Other than what everybody has been asking, I have a quick question and a security concern:

1: Is there a url to add/create a new page? At this moment it seems that the only way to add a page would be for the registered users to edit the wiki home page and add their links there. I want to add a very clear link "Click here to add a new page" that will linkexternally to a blank html editor -not the wiki home-

2: is there a way to block the wiki home page so it can't be edited by all the registered users?

3. Do you have in the scripting anything to standardize the look of titles and subtitles throughout the website like wikipedia? do you have footnotes?  lines (separators)? quotes?

4: When are you going to release the new version and what can we expect to see there?

Concern: I just realized that registered users can use the text/html module to "link to/browse to" pages that  I don't have (can't include) in the menu. The "Link" feature allows registered users to link to ANY page of the website. I understand that permissions are in place for that, but I have the problem because a lot of modules require pages to pass IDs on the querystring, so those pages can't be included on the navigation. 

It would be great to release a different version of the text/html module with a modified version that won't allow registered users to link to portal pages.

1. In the 04.01.00 release that will hopefully be coming shortly you can "add" a page through the UI without having to edit an existing page.

2. Not with the current model

3. We'll be looking at a major UI overhaul in the next release, this will work to make CSS standardization better as well.

4. The new version is mostly bug fixes, with the ability to add a new page through a link, and import/export functionality being the only new features. Hopefully it will be resubmitted to the release tracker today.
