What is PmWiki?

PmWiki is a wiki-based content management system for collaboratively creating and maintaining websites, written in PHP and distributed under the GPL. Its author is Patrick R. Michaud, and Petko Yotov has maintained it since 2009. Pages are edited in the browser without HTML or CSS, and no separate database is required.

How to install PmWiki on Hostripples: choose a plan, open Softaculous, PmWiki is live

License: GPL · Built with: PHP (flat-file storage) · Official site: www.pmwiki.org

Common uses

  • Team or project documentation
  • Small collaborative website
  • Community-edited reference pages
  • Group-protected internal wiki

PmWiki requirements

  • PHP: 7.0 or later, latest supported PHP recommended
  • Database: none required
  • A web server that can run PHP scripts
  • Writable wiki.d/ directory

PmWiki only needs a web server that runs PHP and a writable data directory, without a database, so it fits standard shared hosting. Some third-party recipes and skins may need updating when moving to a newer PHP version.

PmWiki Hosting: Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know

Its requirements page asks for PHP 7.0 or later, advising the latest supported PHP, and a web server that can run PHP scripts. It does not require a database, but needs a writable directory for wiki data.
Yes. Since it needs only PHP and a writable folder, it works on standard shared cPanel hosting. Some recipes and skins may need updates when you move to a newer PHP version.
Log in to cPanel, open the Softaculous one-click installer, choose PmWiki, enter your domain and administrator details, and start. It is usually a few clicks with no manual upload needed.
Yes. PmWiki supports password protection at site, page-group or single-page level, and can integrate with existing password systems such as .htaccess, LDAP or MySQL for finer control.
Yes. PmWiki is open-source software released under the GPL license, so there are no software fees — you only pay for your Hostripples hosting plan.
Yes. Every Hostripples cPanel NVMe plan includes the full Softaculous library, so on one account you can run PmWiki alongside other apps in its category (Wikis), such as DokuWiki and WikkaWiki, plus hundreds of other applications, subject to your plan's resources. You can add each app on its own domain or subdomain and upgrade to a larger plan at any time.
PmWiki is documented as a light application, so the Starter plan is a sensible start for one site; upgrade any time if traffic grows.
Yes. We migrate your site for free with all hosting plans.
