Question

. Is there any way to create (optionally) a new directory for a new created topic?

For example, I have a multiple topics for each specific project (about 10). Each of these projects has a list of current tasks (witch is a table). The format of this table (CurrentTasks) is always the same. I would like to call this topic for each project using the same name.

You may suggest creating a different web for each project, but it can be a little bit too much.

• Web browser: IE 6.0
• Client OS: Windows XP

Answer

TWiki has no nested webs. It is not recommended to create too many webs, having a few webs where you organize topics is a better approach since crosslinking and search is easier. At work we have a few webs with over 1000 topics in each, organized with TWikiForms and embedded search.

I don't understand what exactly you try to accomplish, but these are places to look:

• TWikiForms to categorize content
• BugReport is a sample bug tracking based on embedded search and TWiki forms.
• TWikiVariables gives you control over dynamic content, e.g. use %URLPARAM{"anyparametername"}% to dynamically alter content (e.g. a link) in a TWiki topic based on the URL parameter.
• ItemToDo is a demo of a To-Do List application based on TWiki forms and table reporting search
