Open up the `//public » cb_mirror//` namespace to see the list of the tens of thousands of pages mirrored from Citizen Builder (CB). "Namespaces" is the wiki terminology for directory, or folder. One can search on page titles using the browser's //-F — find// feature. Folders can be used to //organize// wiki pages. Access permissions are usually applied to folders (namespaces). === Other Folders In The Wiki Sitemap === * `//playground//` -- a place to try out page editing features. * `//public » cb_mirror//`-- the collection of public `resource` pages mirrored from Citizen Builder (CB), i.e., conventionofstates.com. * `rack_cards` -- an internal testing zone. * `//wiki//` -- the help files live here. ===== Namespaces — wiki terminology for `directory` ===== “Namespaces” is the wiki terminology for directory, or folder. Folders can be used to organize wiki pages. Access permissions are usually applied to folders (namespaces). \\ ===================================================== \\ ===== Purpose Of COS Wiki ===== A key, new, capability provided by this wiki project is to "mirror" pages and documents from Citizen Builder (CB) to the Wiki — which provides full-text search. The types of items mirrored from CB include pages, blogs, video pages, and files — which includes PDFs & word processing documents. \\ ===================================================== \\ ==== Mirrored Pages on Wiki Provides Full-Text Search of CB Pages Content ==== By mirroring these pages, the Wiki provides a full-text search capability of Resources published on Citizen Builder (CB). (//Why this is needed//: because the search of CB "Resources" area in CB is //limited// to search of keywords on the item's abstract -- if any keywords exist. CB's search engine does not do full-text indexing and searching.) These mirrored Wiki pages are not expected to be edited on the Wiki — because they are a //mirror//. \\ ===================================================== \\ ====== Only ‘Public’ Pages in WikiPreview ====== ===== Permissions On Wiki's Mirrored CB Pages ===== //Only// "public" pages are mirrored to the **WikiPreview** of OCT 30 2025: * Public: viewable by anyone on Internet (the "general public").   [Read only.] \\ Future iterations of WikiPreview will include * Internal, COS-only, pages. * Login to COS (via OAuth; like with COSU) required (and for certain docs, a Role or Geo location from the person's CB profile required). * [Read only. Mirrored pages are always read only.] \\ ===================================================== \\ ===== WikiPreview Pages Are Static (A Snapshot) ===== 1 - This //WikiPreview// is a //static// snapshot of a point in time of CB pages. \\ 2 - Therefore, documents / pages newer than OCT 30 2025 will not appear in the WikiPreview, nor in search results in the WikiPreview. \\ 3 - When the production wiki is rolled out: * the wiki updater / refresher software * //detects// changed CB pages (using database triggers and procedures), * when a document is added, updated, or deleted on CB, it * //makes// the corresponding change on the wiki. \\ ===================================================== \\ ====== Project Info ====== === Development Work: Two Main Areas: ===      1 - Rights & Access      2 - File Conversion & Mirroring === STATS                        [a/o 2025 OCT 30] === {{ ::dashboard_menu_excerpt_-_screen_.png?nolink&200|}}      # PUBLIC > 21,000      # INTERNAL > 850            Resource Items Mirrored:      # File Type Counts in PUBLIC      Blogposts:  12571      Pages:       4463      Video:       3333      Files:       1127 === COS URL Schemes ===      `type`    `sub-DIR`      ---------    ---------      blogposts    /news/      pages     /      videos     /videos/      files   /files/ === Naming Components — example ===      id | 18654      title | Bring America Back to Life Convention 2023      slug | bring-america-back-to-life-convention-2023 === File Types Within "Files" ===      docx      pdf      png      pptx      xlsx      zip === "Namespaces" -- a dokuwiki-unique term ===      * Internal -- COS Login required; possibly role/geo      * Public    -- open to the general public            * Internal           - cb_mirror -- Resource items copied from      * Public           - cb_mirror
