Hi all! I really like ikiwiki and i tested it on my local machine but i have one question that i can't answer reading documentation (my fault of course)... I have an account and some space on a free hosting service. Now, i want to put my ikiwiki on this remote web space so that i can browse it from wherever i want. I have my source dir and my git dir on my local machine. How can i upload my ikiwiki on the remote host and manage it via git as i can do when i test it locally? Where is specified? Where can i find documentation about it? Thanks in advance!

[[tips/Laptop_wiki_with_git]] explains one way to do that. > --[[Joey]] Thanks a lot for your answer. rsync plugin would be perfect but... how would i manage blog post? I mean... is it possible to manage ikiwiki blog too with rsync plugin in the way you told me? --Pab > If you want to allow people to make comments on your blog, no, the rsync plugin will not help, since it will upload a completely static site where nobody can make comments. Comments require a full IkiWiki setup with CGI enabled, so that people add content (comments) from the web. --[[KathrynAndersen]] Ok, i understand, thanks. Is there any hosting service that permits to have a full installation of iwkiwiki or i am forced to get a vps or to mantain a personal server for that? --Pab
