Tinta – Team Wiki

Tinta turns a WordPress site into a private wiki for your team. Write docs, notes and plans in the block editor, keep them in a tree of pages, and share them only with the people you invite.

Features

• Pages inside pages, up to five levels deep, in a sidebar tree you can drag to reorganize.
• The block editor, with a focused set of blocks plus two of Tinta’s own: Callout and Page link.
• Saves as you type. One person edits a page at a time; others see who is editing.
• Notes on blocks, with replies, @mentions and resolve.
• Pinned and recent pages, emoji page icons, and ⌘K to find any page.
• Two roles: Members read and write every page, Viewers only read.
• Workspace mode (on by default): everyone lands in the workspace after logging in, and the site becomes private.
• Follows each person’s admin color scheme. Works on mobile, in right-to-left languages, and on multisite (each site has its own workspace).

Privacy

Every page is private: only people with a Tinta role (and administrators) can read them, and nothing is ever public. Tinta stores everything in your own WordPress database and sends no data anywhere.

Images and files you add to pages go to the media library, like any WordPress upload. Tinta keeps them out of the media library for people without a Tinta role, but, as with all WordPress uploads, anyone who has a file’s link can open it.

Source code and how to build it

The JavaScript and CSS in build/ are compiled from the TypeScript and SCSS sources in Tinta’s public repository, in the src/ folder: https://github.com/jovtrc/tinta/tree/trunk/src

To build them yourself:

1. Install Node.js 24 with pnpm, and PHP 8.2 with Composer.
2. In a clone of the repository, run composer install and pnpm install.

3. Run pnpm build. It compiles src/ into build/ with @wordpress/scripts (webpack).

   bin/build-zip.sh builds the same zip as a release. Issues and contributions are welcome on GitHub.
