This is like -the [[ikiwiki/directive/template]] directive, with the addition that one does not -have to provide all the values in the call to the template, -because ftemplate can query structured data ("fields") using -the [[field]] plugin. - -Templates are files that can be filled out and inserted into pages in -the wiki, by using the ftemplate directive. The directive has an id -parameter that identifies the template to use. - -Additional parameters can be used to fill out the template, in -addition to the "field" values. Passed-in values override the -"field" values. - -There are two places where template files can live. One is, as with the -[[plugins/template]] plugin, in the /templates directory on the wiki. These -templates are wiki pages, and can be edited from the web like other wiki -pages. - -The second place where template files can live is in the global -templates directory (the same place where the page.tmpl template lives). -This is a useful place to put template files if you want to prevent -them being edited from the web, and you don't want to have to make -them work as wiki pages. - -### EXAMPLES - -#### Example 1 - -PageA: - - \[[!meta title="I Am Page A"]] - \[[!meta description="A is for Apple."]] - \[[!meta author="Fred Nurk"]] - \[[!ftemplate id="mytemplate"]] - -Template "mytemplate": +## Activate the plugin - # <TMPL_VAR NAME="TITLE"> - by <TMPL_VAR NAME="AUTHOR"> - - **Summary:** <TMPL_VAR NAME="DESCRIPTION"> - -This will give: - - <h1>I Am Page A</h1> - <p>by Fred Nurk</p> - <p><strong>Summary:</strong> A is for Apple. - -#### Example 2: Overriding values - -PageB: - - \[[!meta title="I Am Page B"]] - \[[!meta description="B is for Banana."]] - \[[!meta author="Fred Nurk"]] - \[[!ftemplate id="mytemplate" title="Bananananananas"]] - -This will give: - - <h1>Bananananananas</h1> - <p>by Fred Nurk</p> - <p><strong>Summary:</strong> B is for Banana. - -### LIMITATIONS - -One cannot query the values of fields on pages other than the current -page. + add_plugins => [qw{goodstuff ftemplate ....}], ## PREREQUISITES |
