DokuWiki supports multiple ways of creating links.

External links are recognized automagically: http://www.google.com or simply www.google.com - You can set the link text as well: This Link points to google. Email addresses like this one: andi@splitbrain.org are recognized, too.

automagically: http://www.google.com or simply www.google.com - You can set
link text as well: [[http://www.google.com|This Link points to google]]. Email
addresses like this one: <andi@splitbrain.org> are recognized, too.

Internal links are created by using square brackets. You can either just give a pagename or use an additional ink text.

Wiki pagenames are converted to lowercase automatically, special characters are not allowed.

For details about namespaces see namespaces.

Linking to a specific section is possible, too. Just add the section name behind a hash character as known from HTML. This links to this Section.

This links to [[wiki:samples:links#internal|this Section]].

Notes:

• Links to existing pages are shown in a different style from nonexisting] ones.

• When a section's heading is changed, its bookmark changes, too. So don't rely on section linking too much.

DokuWiki supports Interwiki links. These are quick links to other Wikis. For example this is a link to Wikipedia's page about Wikis: Wiki.

DokuWiki supports [[doku>Interwiki]] links. These are quick links to other Wikis.
For example this is a link to Wikipedia's page about Wikis: [[wp>Wiki]].

Windows shares like this are recognized, too. Please note that these only make sense in a homogeneous user group like a corporate Intranet.

Windows Shares like [[\\server\share|this]] are recognized, too.

Notes:

• For security reasons direct browsing of windows shares only works in Microsoft Internet Explorer per default (and only in the „local zone“).
• For Mozilla and Firefox it can be enabled through different workaround mentioned in the Mozilla Knowledge Base. However, there will still be a JavaScript warning about trying to open a Windows Share. To remove this warning (for all users), put the following line in conf/userscript.js:

LANG.nosmblinks = '';
