Page Titles
Table of contents
Introduction
In previous versions of Deki Wiki, changing the title inside the editor would perform a move operation. This posed three problems: it was impossible to decouple the path title from the display title; it did not allow for title casing edits (changing "IPOD" to "iPod"); and executing a page move operation (and creating redirects) was confusing to end-users. Going forward, Deki Wiki decouples the display title as displayed in the editor with the path title.
Nomenclature
Display title refers to the user-displayed title; path title refers to the URL. This screenshot should help clarify:
Functionality Overview
On a new page creation, the behavior remains unchanged from previous versions of Deki Wiki - the initial title put in the editor determines the path title. For example, if we created a page "De", the path would be /De:
However, in this case, the page title may need to be localized in a specific language. In this case, we'd load the editor and change the title accordingly and save:
Notice that any place where the title is displayed, the display title is visible: (the breadcrumbs, the page title, and the nav pane)

Update: I found the answer about moving pages in the forum and makes sense once I did it. This information should have probably been spelled out a more clearly in the documentation above. edited 13:21, 13 Jun 2008
You can name a page whatever you want and that will be the Display Title. To reorder the page you would click on move (More-> Move) and you would name the page so that it will reorder.
Example:
you have pages:
A
B
C
You rename C to AA so it is now listed as:
A
B
AA
To move AA above B you would click More-> Move and change the path of the page to AA which will then list the pages as:
A
AA
B
