To rename a page the simplest way is to <br><br>(1) go to the edit screen on the old page, select all the text, copy<br>(2) go to the edit screen on the new page and paste<br><br>At this point you have copied the old page. If you want to rename the page then go back to the old page, edit it, and put "delete" as the only text in the whole page.<br>
<br>This method will lose the page history on the new page but RecentChanges and etc will be updated properly.<br><br>The other option is to go "behind the scenes" with either FTP or on the command line and issue a rename/move/mv/copy/cp command (depending on your platform and desire) to rename or copy the whole file. That method will keep the page history but RecentChanges and etc will not be updated.<br>
<br>I hope I've correctly understood what you're trying to do. If I've misunderstood maybe you could clarify...<br><br>-Peter<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/3/24 Alasdair McAndrew <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:amca01@gmail.com">amca01@gmail.com</a>></span><br>
