 +===== Removing a Page from a Menu =====
  
 Typically, when you delete the contents of the page, you also delete that page unless it has children. If a page also appears in menu, however, you can't remove it by deleting the content: instead, move the page to namespace "z-archive". Only then will it disappear.  Typically, when you delete the contents of the page, you also delete that page unless it has children.

-====== Other Resources ======+===== Subscribing to Wiki Changes ===== 
 +Subscribe to parts of -- or the whole! -- wiki to receive an email when someone makes changes to pages or namespaces. To subscribe:  
 +  - Navigate to the page or namespace to which you want to subscribe;  
 +  - On the right-hand menu which contains the main edit link on every page, find the envelope with the scroll-over text "Manage Subscriptions";  
 +  - Choose your preferences and click "Subscribe".  
 +  - Repeat for other pages or namespaces!  
 + 
 +===== Limiting your Wiki Search ===== 
 + 
 +When getting too many search results, use the tricks [[https://www.dokuwiki.org/search|listed here]]. Specifically useful may be:  
 + 
 +==== Phrase search ("") ==== 
 + 
 +You can search for exact phrases by putting double quotes around a set of words, e.g. [ "installing dokuwiki" ]. 
 + 
 +==== Search within a namespace (@)==== 
 + 
 +You can restrict the search to namespaces. To search pages within a namespace, prefix @ or ns: to the namespace. To not search pages within a namespace, prefix ^ or -ns: to the namespace. 
 + 
 +For example, the query [ dokuwiki @wiki ^wiki:docs ] will find pages which contain a word “dokuwiki” and are within “wiki” namespace but not within “wiki:docs” namespace. The query [ dokuwiki ns:wiki -ns:wiki:docs ] will do the same thing. 
 + 
 +Note that you have to search a namespace (e.g. something that has a URL that ends in “:start”) — otherwise you are searching a page. So, searching with [ ns:public:nnels:etext:template-styles ] does not work, but searching in [ ns:public:nnels:etext ] most certainly does.
