      wiki.js is really close to a 2.0 release. I'd test now, but not implement until they update. They are moving to a completely different database engine.

        @scottalanmiller Ok thanks. I was searching and this topic is what came up for me on google so that is only reason I posted to such an old topic.

        We are currently not using any kind of official documentation except excel, text, and word. It may not happen but i want to keep pushing to get us on something better than that.

            MongoDB and moving to PostgreSQL

                It is ONLY for authentication and sessions, not content. So makes way more sense. Totally terrible use case for MongoDB.

                  So MongoDB will still be used for content?

                    No, it never was.

                            Just the file system. No database.

                              It is by doing that (the same as Dokuwiki does) that it is able to use GIT as a backup mechanism and version control.

                                By far the best thing I like about wiki.js

                                  You can do this with DokuWiki too, it just isn't automated as part of the install.

                                      Didn't have time to mess with anything last night because of family. Hopefully tonight. I'm excited to try Wiki.js and Bookstack

                                        If I was turning up something for only IT, and had the authority to force people to use it, I would only use Wiki.js. I totally love the git based backup thing.

                                          @JaredBusch Thanks for the recommendation! It is only for IT though I can't force others to use it. Will check it out tonight. Have heard many good things about it here and that means a lot.

                                            By force to use, I mean that because it requires learning to use markdown instead of a WYSIWYG editor.
