Note:
There are many Dokuwiki plugins available for extending the functionality of Dokuwiki. DokuWiki plugins are frequently developed by members who are not part of the DokuWiki development team. As a result, there is no guarantee that: 1) the plugin developer will assist us if the plugin does not work, 2) the plugin developer will not abandon the plugin entirely, and 3) that plugins will continue to work after DokuWiki software updates.
While there are quite a number of DokuWiki plugins available, the tech team will always try to balance the need for additional functionality with the need for a stable operating environment for our user community. That being said, if there is additional functionality that you require in DokuWiki, please contact the tech team, and we will try to assist you.
