Creating a Blank Wiki

1. Make a clone of the Wiki with:

   git clone git://www.fdsd.co.uk/viki
   

2. Delete any unwanted webs, e.g. Business and Tech:

   cd viki
   rm -rf Business Tech
   

3. Create a directory for your new web:

   mkdir MyWeb
   

4. Modify the Makefile with the active web names:

   sed -i s/SUBDIRS=Tech Business/SUBDIRS=MyWeb/ Makefile
   

5. Modify the Apache configuration file to contain only the active web names

   sed -i 's/RewriteRule ^(Viki|Tech|Business)/RewriteRule ^(Viki|MyWeb)/' \
       ./etc/apache/viki
   

   If using Nginx, make appropriate changes to the rewrite rule documented in VikiHosting.

6. Commit your changes to Git
