Updating the wiki

[CoolAJ86]

I'd like to update the wiki. How does one get an account?

I just spent over an hour trying to figure out how to do something
that was stupidly simple, but because I was following the wiki (which
includes no date or version information) I troubleshot a non-existent
problem for over an hour before reverting my project and doing it the
easy way.

Instead of any of this: http://wiki.activescaffold.com/wiki/published/CalendarDateSelectBridge

All I needed was this
sudo gem install calendar_date_select --force

# Added this in config/environment.rb
config.gem "calendar_date_select"

# I restart and see that things work, but they don't
sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Which is the way which does not result in any sort of error like this

undefined local variable or method `calendar_date_select_javascripts'
undefined local variable or method `calendar_date_select_stylesheets'

/var/webapps/IT355/vendor/plugins/active_scaffold/lib/bridges/
calendar_date_select/lib/as_cds_bridge.rb:52:in
`active_scaffold_javascripts'
/var/webapps/IT355/vendor/plugins/active_scaffold/lib/active_scaffold/

I had similar experience to what you describe, and followed the
outdated wiki, too:

http://groups.google.com/group/activescaffold/browse_thread/thread/979848a511f2f67f

As you can see, the old, outdated wiki on http://wiki.activescaffold.com/wiki/published/HomePage
should be deleted. It's already ported to http://wiki.github.com/activescaffold/active_scaffold

So please update the pages there, so that everybody can benefit from
your findings and less time will be wasted in the future

PS. I wish more people would link to http://wiki.github.com/activescaffold/active_scaffold
so that it would show up higher in the search results.

Especially because I've rarely if ever come across that second wiki while googling. The first (out of date) set always comes up.

Yeah... that would be good too.
