No, unfortunately, I couldn't make this work for the tikiwiki export.
As far as I can tell, if you give the tikiwiki a block of text with
newlines in it, the tikiwiki will "decide" that you wanted to set the
linebreaks yourself, and will format the block as <pre>, making it
impossible for a browser to reflow the text. This is not what I wanted.
I want paragraphs in my org document to look like paragraphs when exported.
So what I wanted here was newlines /only/ where the paragraphs break.
Honestly, I don't understand how this is done in the wiki engine --- it
seems hard to specify this as an unambiguous translation and get the
edge cases (like single-line paragraphs) right. However, my appetite
for reading PHP code is /extremely/ limited, so I have been learning the
format rules by experimentation.
Hope that explains things,
Best,
