PHP Wikis
There are a growing number of Wikis written in PHP, the PhpHypertextPreprocessor scripting language. See the PHP section in WikiEngines for more.
Here is a list of "active" PHP WikiWiki sites as of June 28, 2003:
- PhpWiki (1MB+ download with 600 files, GPL, flat files, should be comprehensive but wow, 600 files?).
- WikkiTikkiTavi (29K & 40 files, GPL, many reference links, the latest is version .25 on Source Forge MySQL. Really nice). The instructions are sparse, but there a lot of sites using it.
- PhikiWiki (Small 6-8 program files, flat files, but it wanted to write outside of it's directory -- which I don't allow, but their demo did look nice).
- CoTeia (Links off to a site in Brazil (.br) & is in Portuguese).
- PukiWiki (Japanese site).
- WikiPedia (Probably overkill for most sites... GPL, MySQL, but be warned, it has a lot of hard-coded strings and features specific to the Wikipedia encyclopedia.)
- ErfurtWiki (450K download, very few files, Public Domain, flat files, dbm or mysql/postgres, Funky plugin interface, extensive documentation.)
- AnotherPHPWiki (more info here?)
- WakkaWiki (272K 40 files BSD? license, MySQL, very easy install)
- PmWiki (Nice features, easy install)
- BlenderWiki (This one links to a web site in the Netherlands (.nl) won't come up).
- BlastWiki (Links to a page stating BlastWiki in no more).
Here is a list of WikiLikeThings:

PHP User groups
It's hard to search for pages that are actually about PHP, since many URLs contain ".php" - so this Category should be more useful than most. Or in Google you can try adding intext:php to your query.
