About the Wiki Viewer+ Widget

Widgets by Social Edge are quality, easy-to-use custom widget that does one thing very well (e.g., display a wiki page on your home page) for your Verint community.

Fully skinnable and adaptable to your brand's style, the Wiki Viewer+ Widget comes with its own configuration panel and can be placed on your community's global homepage or any Group or Application landing page.

This Wiki Viewer+ widget does not replace Verint’s existing widgets. Rather, it allows you to display the contents of a wiki page in a visually appealing way.

Best Practices and Tips

Best Practice/Tip

How To…


Adjust the look of Wiki Document in the Viewer

To adjust the look of the wiki document in the viewer you must edit the wiki document itself. For example, if the wiki document was a table and you are seeing scrollbars in the wiki viewer, go in to the wiki document and resize the table smaller and this will make the scrollbars disappear.


Have Wiki Doc URL Handy

It’s best to grab the URL of the Wiki Document before configuring the widget. Simply go to the Wiki Document, and in your browser window, go to the Address bar, copy that full URL. and copy it to your clipboard or a notepad.
