Transition from another WikiWare+

If you choosed ewiki to replace an already existing wiki script on
your site, you should first think about, that the syntax/WikiMarkup
isn't equal across all Wikis. There are a few markup extension
plugins, that may help you around this, but beware that transition
with a larger collection of WikiPages+ won't be very easy.

The best way to import the old WikiPages+ to ewiki, is to first
export it using the tools of the previous WikiWare+. You can then
just put the produced text/plain PageSource+ into "init-pages/",
because all files found therein (note, that there shouldn't be any
file name extension like .txt) are feed directly into the ewiki
database, when ewiki is run for the very first time (when the
EWIKI_PAGE_INDEX+ is not found in the db).

There is a "plugins/db/phpwiki13.php" which may be useful in first
trying ewiki, but it is not recommended to use it for daily work. 
Speaking of PhpWiki+ you could also use the "tools/t_convertdb.php"
to import (and markup convert) all pages from PhpWiki+ to the ewiki
database format.
