1. Creating a new page [Bottom] [Top]
You create a new page by visiting the page. If the page does not exists, MoinMoin will suggest to create it. There are several ways to create a new page:
1.1. By Adding a link on another page [Bottom] [Top]
- Edit another page
Add a link to the new page, either as a WikiName or as ["Name With Spaces"]
- Save the page and click the new link
- Click one of the template names
- Edit your new page and save it
For more information on linking to other pages, see HelpOnLinking.
1.2. By visiting the page [Bottom] [Top]
Enter the address of the new page, e.g http://example.com/wiki/MyNewPage in the browser location box and press Enter
- Click one of the template names
- Edit your new page and save it
Might not work on all browsers if the page name contains non ASCII characters.
1.3. By using the NewPage macro [Bottom] [Top]
If the current page uses the NewPage macro:
Enter the page name in the text box and click "Create New Page"
- Edit your page and save it
Example:
The NewPage macro make it easy to create new pages in one step, using certain template or automatically creating a sub page. For more help on NewPage macro, see HelpOnMacros.

3. Setting Variables [Bottom] [Top]

4. Editor backup [Bottom] [Top]
If you have a homepage (a page with the same name as your user name), each time you save or preview a page, a backup of the text is saved as UserName/MoinEditorBackup. If your browser crashed when editing a page and you did a preview, you can get the text from the backup. Use preview often!
If sub pages are disabled, the backup is saved as UserNameMoinEditorBackup
