I am starting to create Wiki in my TFS 2018 Update 2 and I find the problem of making full searches of both the content of the wiki and the attachments you may have (content of PDF, DOCX, etc).
Is it possible to enable the search function within the attachments?
I'd appreciate your help
This is not possible for now. You can use wiki search to quickly find relevant wiki pages by title or page content across all projects in your TFS.
Take a look at this blog contain the detail Introduction-- Announcing public preview of Wiki search
If you really need this feature, you could submit a uservoice here, TFS PM and Admin will kindly review your suggestion.

I'm looking to use Redmine for document management. I know that Redmine is not ideal for this task but there is already a lot of content on the site so I'd like to utilize it if possible.
Redmine currently does not a have great documents module. The files we've uploaded look to be amended on that specific page and it doesn't seem to be able to move to another page (unless you download and re-upload to the proper page).
Idea 1
I see there is a Files section, which could work as a central repository (and you can upload document based on release) however, is there a way to set up a nice-looking 'front-end' page that automatically updates based on new submissions to the Files tab? I envision this front end to be a simple wiki page with the document name, a short description and a links to the file posted in the Files tab.
There are so many documents uploaded to varying pages on the Redmine site. I would only do the whole download and re-upload of files if there was a way to automatically update the 'front end' wiki.
Idea 2
I see there is a DMSF plugin for Redmine. Has anyone used this before and has is solved document management issues? I'd like to hear your feedback. Even if DMSF doesn't totally solve my issue, anything is better than what I have now.
Thanks!
In my opinion DMSF module is a perfect companion for Redmine. We have adopted it in our company. You can easily deal with document versions, webdav access, custom approval workflow, document modifications notification with the extra value of being well integrated with Redmine features (roles, dynamic links in Wiki and issue text and notes).
Is there a way to export a wiki page to a MS word document in WSS? Ideally, I would like to add a link on every WIKI page when clicked would export the content to a Word document. Any free plugins to do this?
Any help is appreciated

There is no such tool provided by Microsoft at this time.
There is one being developed though in the SharePoint Community Kit.
Wiki Import/Export Tool
The EWE team is at a very early stage of designing an import/export tool for the SharePoint wiki. The goal is for this tool to be able to import from other wiki products such as FlexWiki, MediaWiki, and TWiki, and Confluence and also from Word and OneNote as well as to export to Word via HTML (per page) and MHTML (entire wiki) formats.
For this CKS 2.0 pre-release, the EWE team is making available a fairly stable build of the FlexWiki Import Tool, for which the source code was graciously donated by Michael Cheng, a developer in the SharePoint product group. This is a one-off tool that will ultimately be converted to a plug-in for the Wiki Import/Export Tool, so if you’re currently using FlexWiki, please test the tool and provide feedback.
I keep my Process Documents on SVN and I want to create a Wiki page includes the information about these files. We use SharePoint in the company for basic document sharing and team sites. As it is mentioned in
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/256407/what-are-your-biggest-complaints-about-sharepoint SharePoint Wiki lacks of usability. I need an easy to use wiki tool which is capable of showing the content like WikiPedia contents and it would be great if I could have the SharePoint tree view and Active Directory authentication also. I googled it and found Atlassian's Confluence and it seems that this product is capable of the requirements. We use Jira for issue tracking, so we can use it's reporting in dashboards. I need and it has a Wiki part which displays wiki pages in tree view. It should be like http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/images/tour/full/page_tree.png http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/images/tour/full/page_tree.png
Does anyone used Confluence or have an idea for other products which meets my requirements
Have you considered our Confluence Sharepoint connector? It sounds like that's what your after, it will allow you to use Sharepoint for all the other features, but use Confluence as your wiki http://www.atlassian.com/sharepoint/.
Seeing that you already use Jira, you could use Confluence and leverage off some level of integration between the two products.
Let me know if you have any questions.

MOSS provides you an excellent option to create a "news" site in your portal.
It adds some "Archive" functionality, but it is very limited - a list of all articles published in that particular site.
My users would like to see something better, a real archive of published articles, browsable by publishing date.
What I've tried so far, is creating a "Calendar" view in the http://portal/publishingsite/pages/ library. It works, but when you click a link in this calendar, it opens the "dispform.aspx?ID=123", not "mytestpage.aspx".
Is it possible to create a custom page using SharePoint designer where I can put a calendar (best if it can be browsed as easy as a typical calendar view in a list) and that links to pages in "page display mode" not in "SharePoint list item display mode"?
Maybe you have seen an easy-to-install and easy-to-maintain page archive feature for MOSS?
Hy,
have you tried one of the templates available at:
Microsoft SharePoint templates
There i saw some pretty good calendar implementations.
(Try the TimeCard Registration).
I'm not sore if it's reusable,but i'm confident that it's a good starting point.
Good luck :)
Check this out:

It looks a little danger-esque to modifying MS template files in the 12 hive, but you can clearly see a 'DataItem.DisplayFormUrl' in...
<a onfocus="OnLink(this)"
href="<%# SPHttpUtility.HtmlUrlAttributeEncode(DataBinder.Eval(Container,"DataItem.DisplayFormUrl",""))%>
Change that and you may be good to go.
You could also perhaps consider customizing dispform.aspx:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-ca/sharepointdesigner/HA101191111033.aspx
I suspect, however, that - if you only want to do this with Designer - it's not gonna fly :(
You could look into XSLT for a Data View... but unless you're willing to dish out a little cheddar I don't think you'll find something which is up-to-par with the Calendar view.
I've started using MOSS 2007's wiki feature for storing the ongoing technical documentation related to a project I'm working on, and it occurred to me after I started writing a few pages that there's no easy way to export out all of the pages into one document.
For those of you familiar with MOSS 2007, any ideas how this might be accomplished?
In the past I've created a site feature that exports SharePoint content to PDF and HTML but that was for publishing sites. I assume it needs some rewriting to make it working with the Wiki.
It basically iterates through the navigation of a site and all it's sub sites and reads all the pages stored in the "pages" document library. For each page it then extracts the content using XSLT.
Let me know whether I shall make the source somewhere available.
Cheers,
Michael
You should be able to create a view that shows the content for all of the wiki articles. It's not pretty; you'll get one really long web page. I don't have sharepoint up and running right now to tell you the exact steps, but I have done it before.
BlueRidge has an extension that allows you to export to PDF, but at 640+ euro it's a tad pricey.
You could copy/paste your content into your desired document. It's not convenient but it is a potential work around.
I am also after a solution for this. We have a multilevel Wiki content that follows a levelling structures. Can we automatically export the MOSS Wiki content to a more structured database such as Excel, Access, or XML?
