: The settings a page shows depend on what the page is for. A media list is
asked how to sort its files; a share wall is asked when it expires; a git
repository is asked what to do with an issue reported by a stranger. A
standard page is asked none of those. So the list below is everything a
page might show rather than everything any one page shows, and changing the
Page Type changes which of them appear.

: Everything here belongs to one page in one language. A group's own
settings, which cover every page in it, are set on the group rather than
here. See [[Wiki_Page_Types|Wiki Page Types]] for what each type is, and
[[Wiki_Page_Locales|Wiki Page Locales]] for how a page and its translations
are kept apart.

==Settings Every Page Has==
;Locale: Which language this copy of the page belongs to. Choosing another
language opens that language's copy.
;Page Type: What the page is for. See
[[Wiki_Page_Types|Wiki Page Types]].
;Page Border: Whether the page is drawn inside a box, and what kind. Solid
draws a plain line around it, Dashed a broken one, None leaves the words to
sit on the page.
;Page Theme: An extra look laid over the group's own, for a page that
should read differently from the rest. No auxiliary theme leaves it as the
group has it.
;Page Header: A page whose words are drawn above this one. Point several
pages at one header and they all change together when it does.
;Page Footer: The same, drawn beneath.
;Table of Contents: Whether a list of the page's headings is drawn near the
top. A page of two paragraphs does not want one; a long page does.
;Title: What a reader sees at the top, and what a search engine shows.
Leaving it empty uses the page's name. This is the place to write a name in
the page's own language.
;Author: Who wrote it, shown on the page and given to search engines.
;Page Icon: A small picture shown beside the page's name and used when the
page is shared.
;Meta Description: A sentence describing the page for a search engine's
results. Leaving it empty lets the site take the opening words.
;Meta Robots: What a search engine is asked to do with the page: leave it
empty to allow the usual, or say noindex to ask that it be left out,
nofollow to ask that its links not be followed.
;Meta Properties: Further tags for the page's head, such as the Open Graph
properties that decide how a link to it looks when it is shared.
;Wiki Source Publicly Viewable: Whether a reader who may not edit the page
can still read the markup it is written in.

==Settings a Media List Adds==
;Static HTML Folder: Whether the files kept with the page are served as an
ordinary folder of files rather than drawn as a list, so a folder of HTML
can stand as a small site of its own.
;Directory Indexes: Whether a folder holding no index file lists what it
holds.
;Index Files: Which file stands as a folder's index, as a comma separated
list tried in order.
;Sort Order: How the files are ordered, which is remembered for each folder
separately.

==Settings a Share Wall Adds==
;Expires: How long the wall stays open to anybody holding its address. A
wall left open forever is worth avoiding.

==Settings a Url Shortener Adds==
;Url to Shorten: The long address.
;Shortened Url: The short one, shown to be copied.

==Settings an Alias Adds==
;Alias Page To: The page this name should lead to, optionally in another
group, written as the page name, an at sign, and the group name.

==Settings a Git Repository Adds==
;Anonymous Issue Reporting: What happens when somebody without an account
reports an issue: allowed, held for a moderator, or refused.

==Settings a News Article Adds==
;Banner: The picture drawn at the head of the article.
;Caption: What the banner shows.
;Rights: Who the banner belongs to and under what terms.
;Abstract: A short summary, used where the article is listed rather than
read.
;Article Date: When it was written, given as a date or as a time.
;Page Categories: What the article is filed under, which decides where it
is gathered.
