DokuWiki is a standards compliant, simple to use Wiki, mainly aimed at creating documentation of any kind. It is targeted at developer teams, workgroups and small companies. It has a simple but powerful syntax which makes sure the datafiles remain readable outside the Wiki and eases the creation of structured texts. All data is stored in plain text files – no database is required.

Our organization needed a wiki system for internal I.T. documentation (runbooks, code snippets, etc.) We tried a number of other wiki systems before settling on Dokuwiki -- Confluence, MediaWiki, VQWiki... the list goes on.

DokuWiki is one of the best wiki-engines I've tested (and, in my opinion, the best of wiki-engines running on php without database). It has a very active community, constant developement and a bunch of indispensable features.
The pros in my opinion:
- active developement with quick bug fixing- extensible by many plugins (including authentication by Active Directory or other LDAP-directories)
- helpful community
- no database

Previous wiki releases had different layout. There were several links on the left side of the page and there were "edit this page", "discussion" and "subscribe to changes" tab links at the top. I don't see any of this in the latest release. It just has a flat page structure. Where did "subscribe to changes" and "discussion" tab links go?
In general I like Dokuwiki's wiki formatting, but I miss using underlining for headers, rather than adding '===' before and after the text. I find it much easier to read a document when editing written this way.
I'm sure it must be possible

The sites are automatically indexed in the background once you visit them with a browser. You could use a tool like wget to spider your website every now and then, or use this plugin [1] (I don't know however if it works).
