Question

I've created a topic name in wikiword from a single word: AssemBlage. I also use the word (assemblage) in my page. Later, I found that every "assemblage" that was in the page has been turned automatically to the topic name AssemBlage (with a link). Is this normal or jerk?
thanks for a reply

Answer

This is normal.

This is the current spec. It can be argued that it does not make sense to link to the same page more the once on a topic. You can escape a WikiWord with <nop>AssemBlage. That logic could be programmed.

If the text 'assemblage' is being turned into AssemBlage, I wasn't aware that TWiki did this and it sounds like a bug. Linking all instances of AssemBlage in a page to that topic is normal of course.

Thanks for the replies. Indeed, it turns "assemblage" (non wiki word) to AssemBlage (wiki word) So you think it's a bug? I looked at twiki's binaries but I don't know from which moduls it could come from, and as I'm not a specialist, it takes me a lot of time!

Did you by any chance ever rename the page from "assemblage" to "AssemBlage"? I'm not entirely sure of the details, but during that renaming process it would have offered to change many (all?) instances of "assemblage" to "AssemBlage" unless you unchecked some checkboxes.

Yes you're right! I effectively change the page name from assemblage to AssemBlage. So there's no bug at all, that's just me! Thank you very much, I can now stop looking at twiki's binaries! what a relief! I feel so stupid now... Sorry for this stupid question!
