See Wiki:SisterSites? for the inspiration.

If you choose to use the sister wiki feature, you'll need to add a cron job to your server to periodically run the script install/maint.pl. This script examines the sister wikis and creates a local list of known pages on those wikis.

  1. First, you need to edit the script to conform to your local system. Edit the database name, user name, password, table prefix, etc. as required.
  2. Second, create the cron job to run the script periodically. For example, on http://andstuff.org, I poll the sister wikis early every Sunday morning:
0 1 * * sun /home/andstuff/bin/maint.pl

Be sure to have the sister wikis also as inter wikis under the same name, or the generated links won't work -- AlanConnor?

Can SisterWiki handle page names that require ".html" or other suffixes? E.g. DiveIntoOsx

Also, i've been guilty of changing 'standard' names too, but why not just stick with SisterSites?? Semantically, i have no doubt i will sister with non-wiki sites, e.g. this cybernetics site - http://pespmc1.vub.ac.be/ASC/SECOND_CYBER.html (which btw would also require handling of ".html")

Thanks for the great software. We're likely to use it.
