The __WikiWizard__ editor is powerful, but __plain__ editor is good enough to handle almost everything you may need for editing wiki page. You probably already noticed there are lots of fast-editing tools on the bottom of editing-box, just like those in OpenOffice or MS Office. Use it as your wish, although you will get familiar with Wiki syntax and like to use it eventually.

!! Question: How does __Quick Navigation__ box work?%%
\\
1. Move you mouse pointer over the __Quick Navigation__ box, you will see 4 options:
%%collapsebox
!screenshot:
[{Image src='images/eiswikiIMG/userguide_navbox5.png'}]
%%
"View": to let you view the specific page exsiting in EIS Wiki. Click __View__, a dialogue box will jump out to let you input page name which you want to see. If there is no box appeared, don't worry, your browser probably is set to not allowing javascripts running. You can either change your browser setting to enable javascripts running or simply input page name in __Quick Navigation__ and then click __View__ link to continue.
%%collapsebox
!screenshot:
[{Image src='images/eiswikiIMG/userguide_navbox4.png'}]
%%
"Edit": works like __View__ link.
%%collapsebox
!screenshot:
[{Image src='images/eiswikiIMG/userguide_navbox3.png'}]
%%
"Clone": works like __Edit__ link. The difference is that __Edit__ link is to edit the exsiting wiki page, but __Clone__ is to make a copy of current page (clone) and edit the new page!
%%collapsebox
!screenshot:
[{Image src='images/eiswikiIMG/userguide_navbox2.png'}]
%%
"Find": to find the page in EIS Wiki with specific search string. Search string can be Page Name, word or sentence anywhere on the page. Just use it in straight way.\\

%%
2. __User Preferences__ setting window:
%%collapsebox

%%
"Skin": you can choose 6 different skins for your EIS Wiki. Please have a try. In my personal opinon, I prefer "PlainValina", which is also the default skin.
warning: not all skins are working well with IE browser! I suggest keeping "PlainValina" skin if you are using IE, otherwise, you may enjoy different styles for EIS Wiki, if you are using Firefox (__Desktop__ resoution 1280x1024 for best view).
Most other settings here are quite simple, just follow the text should be ok.
3. __User Profile__ tab will be useful for you:
%%collapsebox
!screenshot:
[{Image src='images/eiswikiIMG/userguide_pref4.png'}]
%%
"Change Password": you can change your password on this tab. If you want to recover your passwrod please use left menu: "__Lost Password__" link. You will receive an email from EIS Wiki whcih contains your new random password, if you leave your email address when you register to EIS Wiki.
