Notes

  1. ^ Choose one of the following: (default is unchecked)
    • checked: Show "Sync" in sidebar
    • unchecked: (default) Do not show "Sync" in sidebar
    Other notes:
    • Clicking "Sync" will manually synchronize current page
    • "Sync" will never show in the home wiki
  2. ^ Choose one of the following: (default is unchecked)
    • checked: Automatically synchronize page when viewing it
    • unchecked: (default) Do not automatically synchronize page
    Other notes:
    • Pages are automatically synchronized based on options for time and scope. The default behavior is to synchronize when first visiting the page, and then every 24 hours afterwards
    • Automatic synchronization will never occur in the home wiki
  3. ^ Enter the number of minutes to wait before checking for a new update: (default is 1440) [4]
  4. ^ Specify specific page titles to sync: (default is Main_Page)
    • *:Main_Page: means sync all Main_Pages in all wikis
    • *: is a wildcard and means sync all pages in all wikis
    • Individual pages can be specified on each line.
    For example, the following would only auto-synchronize two pages: the Main_Page and Earth in English Wikipedia:
    en.w:Main_Page
    en.w:Earth
    
    
    Note that all lines must be separated by a UNIX line ending (ASCII 10) not a Windows line ending (ASCII 13 + ASCII 10)
