{SPLIT()}!About Tiki Profiles

Profiles is a new feature which will be available in TikiWiki 3.0 (and requires PHP 5.1), which will be released in April 2009.

__Configuration Made Easy:__ TikiWiki has a lot of ((doc:features)) and covers a wide range of ((tw:use cases)). Because of this, it is unlikely to work "out of the box" for anyone. Profiles solve this problem by storing and sharing different configurations, feature sets, permissions schemes and pre-made examples of some of the more complicated features.

!!Benefits
*Managed in wiki pages (collaborative, version history, etc.)
*Can be used __not only__ at the initial install, __but also on an existing installation__.
*Install one or many, even if they overlap (the last one installed wins if there are any conflicts)
*Profiles can include other profiles (several small profiles making a large one)
*Not just for settings, but __also for data__
*Since there is no extra code, can be designed for very specific, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Long_Tail|long tail] uses. We can have hundreds of profiles for an __out-of-the-box experience__, with a single code-base!
*Permits power users & admins to share their experience

!!How it Works
Each profile is a configuration patch that can be applied on top of any TikiWiki installation. Profiles will allow to change configurations in a TikiWiki installation and create various objects. As of now, the most important object types are available and more will be added as needed.
