Help/CreatePagePlugin
The CreatePage plugin allows to easily create new pages, optionally with default content.
This allows you to create a page getting the new pagename from a forms-based interface, and optionally with the initial content from some template.
Put a <?plugin-form CreatePage ?> at some page, browse this page, enter the name of the page to create, then click the button.
Usage
<?plugin-form CreatePage ?> <?plugin-form CreatePage template=CategoryHomePage ?> <?plugin-form CreatePage template=SomeTemplatePage vars="year=2004&name=None" ?>
Arguments
Argument |
Description |
Default value |
|---|---|---|
s |
The pagename, which will passed to the plugin. |
|
initial_content |
The new page will be pre-filled with this content. |
|
template |
The new page will be pre-filled with the content of this page. |
|
vars |
Variables to be expanded. |
|
overwrite |
Whether to overwrite an existing page. |
Variable Expansion
The content (either initial_content or template) might hold some variables, which will be expanded on creation. Unassigned variables will stay as %%<var>%%, assigned variables without matching %%<var>%% placeholder will be ignored, without any warning.
A variable in a template is denoted as %%var%%, which will be expanded by the value of var given to the vars argument (in urlencoded php notation).
Some special variables are automatically assigned:
%%ctime%% |
$WikiTheme->formatDateTime(time()) |
%%author%% |
$user->getId() |
This forms together with page templates and the Help:WikiFormRichPlugin and optionally the Help:SqlResultPlugin a framework to create templated pages.
