VaultWiki can organize multi-article content into containers called Books. The Book container is simply an article that was created in the Book namespace. This manual is a good example. Its index is in the Book namespace, and it shows links to turn the page or return to the index.
Each Book contains some introductory text, followed by a Table of Contents that lists all of its chapters.
Adding Chapters to Books
You can add any article to a Book by clicking the article's Book tab. Use the form to select an existing Book, or "Add to New Book". If an article is already a chapter of a Book, you can move it to another Book using this form.
If you're not sure whether a specific Book is the right place for an article, click "[View]" to review the Book.
Click "Update Chapter" to place the article in the Book.
If you selected "Add to New Book", you will be redirected to the article creation wizard. Once the Book is created, the chapter will automatically be added to it.
The Article tab will show additional navigation links that allows users to move to the "Previous" and "Next" pages, or read the Book's index. The article will also now have an Index tab, which links to the Book's index.
Managing Chapters of Books
You can change the order that chapters appear in a Book's Table of Contents by clicking on the Edit Tab while viewing the Book index. Changing the order will also affect the "Previous" and "Next" links in each chapter.
On the Edit Tab, you will see a form called "Chapters". You can use this form to Delete chapters or change the order of the chapters.
To delete chapters from a Book, click the checkbox next to the items you want to remove, and click "Delete Selected Chapters".
If you want to sort the Books alphabetically, click the button labelled "Sort Alphabetically".
To fully customize the chapter order, you can number the chapters using the provided numerical fields, and clicking "Update Order".
If you're not sure what order to place the chapters in because you're unfamiliar with the content, you can click "[View]" to review the corresponding chapter.
