This website showcases their releases and ongoing (public) projects. All tables are free to download. And people can request to join the team.

It also takes advantage of the Support Tickets e-mail integration and using zones for "sub-sites" for each released pinball table. |
| Question | Can I move a Wiki+ page? |
|---|---|
| Answer | Technically, Wiki+ pages cannot be moved because they don't have a fixed location within the network structure. Creating child links forms a path, not a strict hierarchy. However, you can manipulate the breadcrumbs by ensuring only one path leads to a page. |
| Question | Can I track changes made to Wiki+ pages? |
|---|---|
| Answer | Yes, Wiki+ includes a revision history feature accessible through the page edit screen. This feature allows you to view a log of edits, see changes highlighted in tooltips, and revert to previous versions of a page as needed. |
| Question | How can I view the complete tree structure of my Wiki+? |
|---|---|
| Answer | You can access a view of the complete Wiki+ tree structure through the designated option in the admin panel. However, it's important to note that this view will reflect guest access permissions. Some pages may be hidden if they are restricted to specific user groups. |

| Question | What are orphaned pages and how should I handle them? |

They can be intentional if you prefer to link pages using the wiki-style syntax instead of a rigid tree hierarchy. You have the flexibility to choose the linking method that best suits your content organization. |
