Configuring Tiki Features

One of the best things about Tiki is the number of features that it includes... right out-of-the-box. Even better, these features are all unified under a single product — Tiki.

Now that your site is configured to allow new users to register, you can add features to your site. By default, Tiki starts with only one feature turned on - the wiki feature. Let's look at what other features are available.
Release 5.x Release 4.x Release 3.x Release 2.x Release 1.9.x
#From the Administration page, click Features Features.

TipTip:
You can also access the Administration page by typing http://www.yourdomain.com/tiki-admin.php?page=features in your web browser.
  1. The Administration: Features page, appears.
    Administration: Features page.
    The Administration: Features page lists all Tiki features.

    TipTip:
    Select the No tabs option to display all the features on a single page, instead of on separate tabs.

    TipTip:
    Use the Configuration Search option to quickly find a specific feature or option. This is especially helpful since Tiki contains more than 1,000 different settings!

    The File Gallery and Wiki features should be enabled, by default, for a new Tiki default profile installation.
