What is this all about?
This guide is my attempt to contribute to the Tiki Community. I'm not really a hard-core coder, so I'm contributing what I can. Read more about me, here. Read more about the Tiki features used on this site, here.
Why "Smarties"?
You're obviously not a "dummy" --” you've already made the decision to use Tiki.
Why isn't insert your favorite Tiki feature here covered in this guide?
Probably because I didn't feel that insert your favorite Tiki feature here was "mainstream" enough (or I simply don't know how to use it).
My goal is not to discuss every single Tiki feature. The Tik documentation already does a good job of that. Instead, this guide covers only the features that I use. If you're an expert on a feature not covered in this guide, why not add it?
Why isn't Smarties available in insert your native language?
Because I speak English only. There is a translation link (using Google Translate) provided on each page. Read more about this guide's multilingual capabilities, here.
Can I reuse or redistribute parts of this guide?
Absolutely. Please read the copyright statement for more information, including proper attribution.
Is this content really free?
