10. Add [[PageHistory]] links to the top of pages. This requires you to have setup [[ViewCVS]] or something similar to access your [[Subversion]] repository. The --historyurl parameter makes ikiwiki add the links, and in that url, "[[]]" is replaced with the name of the file to view. So repeat step 9 to rebuild the wiki post commit wrapper and wiki, adding a historyurl something like this one:
- --historyurl='http://svn.host/trunk/doc/[[]]?root=wiki'
+ --historyurl='http://svn.host/trunk/[[]]?root=wiki'

-ikiwiki uses the HTML::Template module as its template engine. This supports things like conditionals and loops in templates and is pretty easy to learn.
+ikiwiki uses the HTML::Template module as its template engine. This
+supports things like conditionals and loops in templates and is pretty easy
+to learn.
It ships with some basic templates which can be customised:
* `templates/page.tmpl` - Used for displaying all regular wiki pages.
+* `templates/misc.tmpl` - Generic template used for any page that doesn't
+ have a custom template.
* `templates/recentchanges.tmpl` - Used for the RecentChanges page.
-* `templates/edit.tmpl' - Edit page.
-* `templates/create.tmpl' - Creating a new page.
-* `templates/signin.tmpl` - Used for the SignIn form and all assciated forms, if it exists.
-
- Note that the SignIn form is implemented using CGI::FormBuilder, which interfaces to HTML::Template, so not all of it can be customised with templates, although most of it can, by creating this template. Without the template, CGI::FormBuilder creates the page by itself.
+* `templates/editpage.tmpl' - Create/edit page.
+
+If you like, you can add these to further customise it:
+
+* `templates/signin.tmpl` - If it exists, it is used for customising the
+ layout of the SignIn form and all assciated forms. The misc.tmpl is
+ wrapped around this, so it should only be a template for the form.
+
+ Note that the SignIn form is implemented using CGI::FormBuilder, which
+ interfaces to HTML::Template, so not all of it can be customised with
+ templates, although most of it can, by creating this template. Without
+ the template, CGI::FormBuilder creates the page body by itself.
I aim to keep almost all html out of ikiwiki and in the templates.
