+The lines which feature creation_year(<TMPL_VAR year>) are most likely the culprits. That would explain why the error was repeated twice, and would tally with the file in `templates/` being rendered, rather than the inclusionists.

+ikiwiki verison: 3.20100815.2
+
+If I instruct editemplate to only match the top level pages in a directory using
+
+ match="foo/* and !foo/*/* and !foo/*/*/*"
+
+everything works as expected for pages created via links on other wiki pages. So, if I open foo/bar (or any other page on the wiki) and create a link to foo/bar/bug, edittemplate appropriately does not insert any text into the new page.
+
+However, if I use an inline directive like the following
+
+ !inline pages="page(foo/bar/*)" rootpage="foo/bar" postform=yes actions=yes
+
+every page created via the action buttons incorrectly pulls in the text from the edittemplate registration. Changing the order of the conditions in the match="" pagespec has no impact.

+What I wanted
+-------------
+
+I thought to myself it would be nice to see from the console the dates that my ikiwiki blog posts were published. Especially as I would like to know the order of my todo list without having to view the webpage.
+
+What I discovered
+-----------------
+
+Looked at the code and saw the functions for grabbing the ctime from git but couldn't reconcile them to the "Posted" date in the RSS feed. Some more reading and I figured out that the Posted time is taken from the UNIX ctime when first uploaded into the repository and this information is stored in the page state via a Perl storable database - indexdb. (I'm sure most know this but to be clear in UNIX ctime is *not* the actual creation time of a file. UNIX has no facility for recording the actual creation time - however on first upload to the wiki it's good enough).
+
+Wrote a Perl script to query and sort indexdb. Now I can list my todos or blog posts in the order they appear on the web. Handy.
+
+However the ikiwiki state is specifically excluded via '.gitignore'. I work a lot on trains and not having this file in my cloned wiki means I can't list published posts or my todos in the proper order. I can get an approximation from git logs but, dam it, I want it the same!
+
+What can I do?
+--------------
+
+Is it a spectacularly bad idea to include the ikiwiki state file in my cloned repo (I suspect it is). What else could be done? Can I disable pagestate somehow or force ikiwiki to always use git commit times for Posted times?
+

+Hi folks, I created a simple wiki to keep notes and references for projects, it's worked quite nice so far. I decided to use git as it's what I use daily to manage code, and it's available on all my machines.

+Anyway, I wanted to move all the wiki source stuff into a subfolder so that it stops cluttering up my ~ directory.

+ srcdir => '/home/pixel/.notebook/wiki',

+When I originally looked at the "exclude" option, I thought it meant that it excluded pages completely, but it apparently doesn't. What I've found in practice is that a file which matches the "exclude" regex is excluded from *processing*, but it is still copied over to the destination directory. Thus, for example, if I have "^Makefile$" as the exclude pattern, and I have a file `src/foo/Makefile`, then that file is copied unaltered into `dest/foo/Makefile`. However, what I want is for `src/foo/Makefile` to be completely ignored: that it is not only not processed, but not even *copied* into the destination directory.
+
+I'm not sure if the current behaviour is a bug or a feature, but I would like a "totally ignore this file" feature if it's possible to have one.

+I'd already had a look at this idea before you posted this suggestion, and I ran into difficulties.
+So far as I can see, it makes most sense to use the mechanisms already in place for editing pages, and enhance them.
+Unfortunately, the whole edit-page setup expects a template file (by default, when editing pages, editpage.tmpl)
+and anything apart from \"submit\" buttons must have a placeholder in the template file, or it doesn't get displayed at all in the form.
+At least, that's what I've found - I could be mistaken.
+
+But if it's true, that rather puts the kybosh on dynamically generated forms, so far as I can see.
+I mean, if you knew beforehand what all your fields were going to be, you could make a copy of editpage.tmpl, add in your fields where you want, and then make a plugin that uses that template instead of editpage.tmpl, but that's very limited.

## DETAILS
-If one is not using the ymlfront directive, the YAML-format data in a page
-must be placed at the start of the page and delimited by lines containing
-precisely three dashes. The "normal" content of the page then follows.
+There are three formats for adding YAML data to a page. These formats
+should not be mixed - the result is undefined.
-For example:
+1. ymlfront directive
+
+ See [[ikiwiki/directive/ymlfront]] for more information.
- ---
- title: Foo does not work
- Urgency: High
- Status: Assigned
- AssignedTo: Fred Nurk
- Version: 1.2.3
- ---
- When running on the Sprongle system, the Foo function returns incorrect data.
+2. default YAML-compatible delimiter
+
+ By default, the YAML-format data in a page is placed at the start of
+ the page and delimited by lines containing precisely three dashes.
+ This is what YAML itself uses to delimit multiple documents.
+ The "normal" content of the page then follows.
+
+ For example:
+
+ ---
+ title: Foo does not work
+ Urgency: High
+ Status: Assigned
+ AssignedTo: Fred Nurk
+ Version: 1.2.3
+ ---
+ When running on the Sprongle system, the Foo function returns incorrect data.
+
+ What will normally be displayed is everything following the second line of dashes. That will be htmlized using the page-type of the page-file.
+
+3. user-defined delimiter
+
+ Instead of using the default "---" delimiter, the user can define,
+ in the configuration file, the **ymlfront_delim** value, which is an
+ array containing two strings. The first string defines the markup for
+ the start of the YAML data, and the second string defines the markip
+ for the end of the YAML data. These two strings can be the same, or
+ they can be different. In this case, the YAML data section is not
+ required to be at the start of the page, but as with the default, it
+ is expected that only one data section will be on the page.
+
+ For example:
+
+ --YAML--
+ title: Foo does not work
+ Urgency: High
+ Status: Assigned
+ AssignedTo: Fred Nurk
+ Version: 1.2.3
+ --YAML--

+I've been profiling my IkiWiki to try to improve speed (with many pages makes speed even more important) and I've written a patch to improve the speed of match_glob. This matcher is a good one to improve the speed of, because it gets called so many times.

HTML::Template's HTML-like markup prevents me from editing templates in KompoZer or other WYSIWYG HTML editors. The editor tries to render the template markup rather than display it verbatim, and large parts of the template become invisible.

+I agree that being able to replace the template toolkit would be a great piece of modularity, and one I would use. If I could use the slot-based filling and the conditional logic from Template::Toolkit, we could build much more flexible inline and archivepage templates that would look different depending on where in the wiki we use them. Some of this can currently be accomplished with separate templates for each use case and a manual call to the right template in the !inline directive, but this is limited, cumbersome, and makes it difficult to reuse bits of formatting by trapping all of that information in multiple template files. -Ian

+`add_autofile` could be adapted to do this, or a similar API could be
+added.
+
+This would also be useful for autoindex, as suggested on
+[[plugins/autoindex/discussion]]. I'd also like to use it for
+[[plugins/contrib/album]].
+
+One refinement I'd suggest is that if the transient page is edited,

+
+I had a look at implementing this. It turns out to be harder than I thought
+to have purely in-memory pages (several plugins want to be able to access the
+source file as a file), but I did get this proof-of-concept branch
+to write tag and autoindex pages into an underlay.
+
+This loses the ability to delete the auto-created pages (although they don't
+clutter up git this way, at least), and a lot of the code in autoindex is
+probably now redundant, so this is probably not quite ready for merge, but
+I'd welcome opinions.
+
+Usage: set `tag_underlay` and/or `autoindex_underlay` to an absolute path,
+which you must create beforehand. I suggest *srcdir* + `/.ikiwiki/transient`.
+
+Refinements that could be made if this approach seems reasonable:
+
+* make these options boolean, and have the path always be `.ikiwiki/transient`
+* improve the `remove` plugin so it also deletes from this special underlay
+
+>> Perhaps it should be something more generic, so that other plugins could use it (such as "album" mentioned above).
+>> The `.ikiwiki/transient` would suit this, but instead of saying "tag_underlay" or "autoindex_underlay" have "use_transient_underlay" or something like that?
+>> Or to make it more flexible, have just one option "transient_underlay" which is set to an absolute path, and if it is set, then one is using a transient-underlay.
