[[template id=plugin name=pagetemplate author="[[Joey]]"]] [[tag type/chrome]]

This plugin allows a page to be created using a different [[template|wikitemplate]]. The page text is inserted into the template, so the template controls the overall look and feel of the wiki page. This is in contrast to the [[template]] plugin, which allows inserting templates into the body of a page.

This plugin can only use templates that are already installed in /usr/share/ikiwiki/templates (or wherever ikiwiki is configured to look for them). You can choose to use any .tmpl files in that directory. Example:

\[[pagetemplate template=my_fancy.tmpl]]

[[pagetemplate template=my_fancy.tmpl]]
