From e49ff966a39d1037ccbf168b8dbd12618cf1b41e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: joey Date: Sun, 30 Jul 2006 04:31:08 +0000 Subject: * ikiwiki can now download and aggregate feeds with its new aggregate plugin, so it's possible to implement a Planet using ikiwiki! * --setup --refresh no longer rebuilds wrappers. Use --setup --refresh --wrappers to do that. * Add %IkiWiki::forcerebuild to provide a way for plugins like aggregate to update pages that haven't changed on disk. --- doc/todo/aggregation.mdwn | 25 +------------------------ 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 24 deletions(-) (limited to 'doc/todo/aggregation.mdwn') diff --git a/doc/todo/aggregation.mdwn b/doc/todo/aggregation.mdwn index 7d765f9e9..53b3133e2 100644 --- a/doc/todo/aggregation.mdwn +++ b/doc/todo/aggregation.mdwn @@ -1,24 +1 @@ -Here's a scary idea..
