Admin DSN

The Admin DSN page also contains content authentication settings. See Content Authentication for more information about that


Have you ever wished you could retrieve data that is actually in TikiWiki's (or some other) database, but not organized or displayed on-screen in the way you'd like? The SQL plugin can be used to display the results of SELECT queries in a Wiki page. The plugin displays the results of the query in an attractively formatted table.

To use the SQL plugin, you must do the following:

  1. Use Admin DSN to define the database to be used by the SQL plugin.
  2. Place a SQL plugin statement in a Wiki page. Please see PluginSQL for instructions.


This page page shows you how to define a DSN so that the SQL plugin can access external data.
