How do I sign in for the first time?

Your wiki is set up before it goes online. Open the Getting started card on your app page in CoreHost, copy the administrator email and password, and sign in. Change the password from your profile once you are in.

Can I move my Confluence or Markdown pages across?

Markdown files come across cleanly: connect a Git repository or a folder of Markdown under Administration, Storage and import from it. For Confluence, export your space to HTML or Markdown first, then import or paste the pages. Complex macros may need tidying by hand.

Do password resets and invitations send email?

Yes, once you add an SMTP account under Administration, Mail. Any provider that offers authenticated SMTP on port 465 or 587 works. Until then you can create people under Administration, Users and set their passwords yourself.

I am locked out of the administrator account. What now?

Open your app's Settings in CoreHost, go to the Danger Zone, set a new administrator password and restart. The new password replaces the old one on the next start.

Which plan do I need?

Lite is enough for most teams: Wiki.js and its database use roughly 250 MB of memory at rest. Move to Standard from the panel if you run a large wiki with many people editing at once.

How do I back up my wiki?

Your instance, including the database, is backed up daily and you can restore a snapshot from the panel. Every 6 hours the app also writes a consistent database snapshot to its db-backup folder, so each backup holds a clean restore point. For a copy on demand, type dbdump in the app console and download the export over SFTP.

Who keeps Wiki.js updated?

We do. Curated updates roll out shortly after upstream releases and are tested on our platform first; security fixes move fast. If an update changes behaviour in a breaking way, we email you before it lands.

What happens to my data if I cancel?

Take a final export or SFTP copy any time before you cancel. After termination we keep your data for 14 days (in case you change your mind), then purge it, backups included.

Can I use my own domain?

Yes. Point a CNAME at your instance, prove ownership with a TXT record, and TLS certificates are issued automatically. Cloudflare-proxied domains work; if you use CAA records, allow letsencrypt.org.

Wiki.jsWhat you're getting

Wiki.js is a modern wiki for teams and projects that want their documentation in one searchable place. Write pages in Markdown, a visual editor or raw HTML, arrange them into folders and a navigation menu, and everyone you invite can read, search and edit from any browser. It suits internal docs, runbooks, onboarding guides, handbooks and public help centres.

Every page keeps a full version history, so you can see who changed what and roll back a bad edit. Groups and page rules decide who can read or edit each part of the wiki, so a public help section and a private staff area can sit side by side. People can sign in with local accounts or through Google, Microsoft, GitHub or any OpenID Connect provider, and you can mirror every page to a Git repository as an extra copy.

On CoreHost, Wiki.js runs with its own PostgreSQL database inside the same instance. That is the database the Wiki.js project recommends, and the only one its next major version will support, so there is no migration waiting for you later. There is nothing extra to set up or pay for.

Setup is finished before your wiki goes online. A fresh Wiki.js normally lets the first visitor create the administrator account; ours is created for you with a generated password, shown in your CoreHost panel, so a stranger can never get there first.

Replaces Confluence: Priced per user, so the bill grows with every person you invite, and your pages live in Atlassian's cloud. Wiki.js is a flat monthly price for the whole team, with your pages in your own database.

Moving to CoreHostMove your existing Wiki.js here

Already running Wiki.js on PikaPods, a VPS or your own server? You can bring your data with you. Deploy the app here first, then follow the route below, and keep your old app until you are happy.

Tell us what you are moving

Wiki.js keeps pages in a database. Connect a Git repository or a local folder under Administration, Storage to bring a folder of Markdown files in, or open a ticket to move an existing wiki with its users.

Ways to move it

Do it yourself. Deploy Wiki.js, let it start once, then use the steps on this page, with SFTP and the file manager in the Files tab. A backup taken first gives you a clean point to go back to.
Ask us to move it. Open a ticket from your control panel with the app and where it runs now. Support will tell you what can be moved and help you do it, and nobody touches your old app.

Coming from PikaPods? Switch on SFTP in the pod's settings, stop the pod and copy its files; PikaPods documents this as its manual backup for migrations.
