Any plans for improved navigation? #52

Really slick project! One thing I noticed (unless I'm mistaken) is right now it doesn't seem like there is much facility for structured navigation around a wiki with multiple pages.

Some ideas for things that might help:

Ability to add a sidebar to some pages (a common feature with some wikis, like Gollum)
Some way to generate a list of links to all pages? (I.e. in the Github wiki)
Subpages (or categories, tags) would probably be helpful with generating any sort of auto-generated nav links. The left sidebar at https://torchpad.com/ might be an example to consider

Very interesting project! I agree with @alvinchow86, it needs navigation support.

I thought the gollum method may work, (create _Sidebar.md with contents [[TOC]]) but no dice. I guess the underlying code as similar to gollum as I thought! I think realms-wiki is still a better start for an independent wiki that gollum but these issues would be great to resolve.

Not "structured" navigation but what about GitHub's file finder? https://github.com/blog/793-introducing-the-file-finder

I also want to :+1: for header/footer/sidebar templated files, very handy

Another idea that is structured, breadcrumbs! Example from the Bootstrap 3 docs http://getbootstrap.com/components/#breadcrumbs

This would be nice as a minimal start towards something stronger like sidebars, TOC's, and what have you

+1 for this feature request. We have implemented a navigation sidebar in our gollum wiki and don't want to miss it, but we really want to migrate to Realms.

+1 for support of the Gollum sidebar/header/footer options!

jmatsushita commented 8 years ago

Just been told there's a fork by @Seba0691 which implement some sidebar functionality (as well as other improvements). https://github.com/Seba0691/realms-wiki

The sidebar implementation is already finished (for now it provides a "table of content" listing the file in the current directory and its sub-directories).

I'm currently working on the image upload functionality during the creation/edit of the page, and when i will finish i would like to do a pull request.

I can provide some screenshots if you are interested.

Advices and suggestions are appreciated :)
