Azure DevOps - Wiki link in overview - how to forward to home page instead of new page form - azure-devops

When I go to Overview->Wiki I see a new doc form:
When I remove selected part of the URL (see selected URL on 1st photo) then I'm forwarded to home page:
How to set 2nd page as initial?

During my test, I was able to reproduce your issue.
In my wiki, usually I will be navigated to the Project Wiki, and when I enter the code wikis below, especially those that have nothing inside, like my "testwiki" below. I would also be trapped in the same loop as yours until I edit the url with "dev.azure.com/abc/xyz/_wiki/wikis/projectname.wiki".
So I tried the rest api to delete the empty wiki, and I am able to jump out of the loop by myself.
DELETE https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_apis/wiki/wikis/{wikiIdentifier}?api-version=7.0

Problems publishing a website in GitHub. GitHub Pages is different on my end. Can't follow along tutorials

I have a problem with publishing a website via GitHub. When I try to follow along a website like this: https://progate.com/docs/github-pages, in the step 5 (Publishing your webpage), I don't manage to see what the author of the tutorial sees in GitHub Pages (this: GitHub Pages) but rather i see this: Pages in my end (and when clicking on "add a domain" I see this pages/add a verified domain). What should I do after uploading my repository in GitHub, to publish a website via GitHub if I see what I see instead of what the tutorial says I should see (when going to Pages in GitHub)?
Could you please help me with this? Thanks.
From what I understand, you are going to the wrong place. It looks like you are going to the "Pages" tab of your profile, not your repository. Make sure you go to your repository first, then go to "Settings", then you will find the "Pages" tab on the right, like this:

Azure DevOps: Error when linking to wiki page from a work item

I am trying to link a wiki page to a work item, but every time I do this, the link on the work item shows as an error that says, "Page may have been renamed or deleted." I've checked that the page exists. How can I get the link to work?
Azure DevOps: Error when linking to wiki page from a work item
I used to have a similar issue when I first linked a wiki page from a work item:
Work item->Links tab->Add link->Add wiki page
To resolve this issue, please try to go to the wiki page, select the wiki page add click on expansion options, select Link work items:
Then, we could see the link of the wiki page on the work item.
Hope this helps.

Can we have short cut to create link to jira tasks urls in confluence

Can we have any automated way to get the jira task urls link when we paste the same on confluence automatically like RT urls.?
Maybe not understood your question, but this is always working:
Have your JIRA and Confluence connected.
Copy an url of the JIRA task from JIRA.
Paste it into a Confluence page.
The link will be immediately replaced with JIRA-link:
On page save, JIRA link will be added to links section of the page:
Are you sure your JIRA and Confluence are linked and you — as a user — authorized them to access each other?
If you want to search, not to paste the link
After reading the header of the ticket, I realized that the question might be about search for JIRA-issue from Confluence, not about pasting it from clipboard.
The solution is then to use the "JIRA" macro. It works like this (I am describing the "keyboard-only" solution which I prefer and since you've asked about the shortcut):
Once again: note that your JIRA and Confluence have to be linked.
Type { (the macro-popup will open), then type jira and select JIRA macro (by pressing Enter).
"Insert JIRA Issue/Filter" window will pop up.
Type in your JIRA issue number and press Enter.
Wait for the search to complete.
Press Ctrl + Enter (or click on "Insert" button).

Can not host a webpage on Github

I have a javascript and html snake game and I want to host it on github I do All the steps and make a gh-pages But I get this error 404 File not found ?when I search Username.github.io/repository-name
Any idea why and how I can fix it? Should I wait for github email After I do the commands??
Most web servers have a "default" page, e.g. index.html, that will be shown when the user doesn't request a particular page. GitHub Pages is no different.
Your repository contains a single file called snakeGame.html, which works just fine if you request it. Unfortunately, GitHub Pages doesn't know that this page should be shown by default. As far as it knows that file has no special meaning.
To get your page to show up at http://peggykh.github.io/Snake/ instead of http://peggykh.github.io/Snake/snakeGame.html, you should rename your file to index.html.
