Decided to try and swap out the text editor on this for suneditor, like is discussed here on the feather wiki website

it's actually surprisingly easy, following the instructions from the website you just Save the SunEditor extension file that is a small script downloaded off the website to the same folder as your Feather Wiki file and add <script src="./suneditor-replacement.js"></script> to the "Custom Head" text area in Wiki Settings. After that go to the github repo of SunEditor and download the suneditor.min.css and suneditor.min.js codes and put them in the same folder as feather wiki as well.

The hardest part which wasn't terribly hard at all, open up the suneditor-replacement.js script in notepad or notepad++ and go to where it says css.href= and replace the link in quotes with this "suneditor.min.css"

Then go to where it says script.src= and replace the link in quotes with this "suneditor.min.js" the whole lines should look like css.href="suneditor.min.css"; and script.src="suneditor.min.js";

respectively, the punctuation is important and so is the capitalization!!!

after that save the script, make sure the wiki page is saved and reloaded and it should be up and running, but in order to enable video, you'll want to modify one last thing in the script. Look for where it says buttonList in the code, and you'll see a sort of list where it shows the options for the text editor that you want enabled, like ['undo', 'redo'], and so on. you can highlight all the options and replace them with this chunk:

['undo', 'redo'], ['font', 'fontSize', 'formatBlock'], ['paragraphStyle', 'blockquote'], ['bold', 'underline', 'italic', 'strike', 'subscript', 'superscript'], ['fontColor', 'hiliteColor', 'textStyle','lineHeight'], ['removeFormat'], ['outdent', 'indent'], ['align', 'horizontalRule', 'list'], ['table', 'link', 'image', 'video', 'audio'], ['fullScreen', 'showBlocks', 'codeView'], ['preview', 'print'], ['save', 'template'] So the whole thing should look like

buttonList: [ ['undo', 'redo'], ['font', 'fontSize', 'formatBlock'], ['paragraphStyle', 'blockquote'], ['bold', 'underline', 'italic', 'strike', 'subscript', 'superscript'], ['fontColor', 'hiliteColor', 'textStyle','lineHeight'], ['removeFormat'], ['outdent', 'indent'], ['align', 'horizontalRule', 'list'], ['table', 'link', 'image', 'video', 'audio'], ['fullScreen', 'showBlocks', 'codeView'], ['preview', 'print'], ['save', 'template'] ],

Remember, punctuation is important. If anything borks it's likely you accidentally erased a comma or parenthesis. Don't panic. You can always just redownload the vanilla script and try again as there's not a lot to modify in this code. If you've done it correctly however, it should work as soon as you save and reload, so you should be able to embed media like this:

An amazing little personal wiki doodad

Once again trawling itch.io I came across another amazing thing, this time it is a wiki framework called Feather Wiki that loads up and can be edited on your browser, pretty much no more tech skills needed than being able to use tumblr. Here's a test page that I made copying some content from wikipedia to see how it works. The hyperlinks all lead to wikipedia straight from pasting in, but I could easily change it to my own nested pages. It took all of 5 minutes to figure out and get up and running. It's super lightweight and fast as well. I'm planning on using it to put down all the accurate info and stuff I come across on the web so I can at least have something to reference back to for when my memory loss gets worse. My wiki is completely offline and hosted on my desktop. I just click on the shortcut and I can edit, so I do like it a lot, but it can also be hosted on a web server according to the info page.

Tbh in an age of disinfo and misinfo, having your own personal wiki where you can log accurate information you find may not be a bad idea. Especially if it's something not only free but simple and easy to run, and useable offline to ensure privacy.
