blob: 79044ccc66f8ac44efab6cf485929c02a674f1f7 (plain)

This [[patch]] adds a space before the forward-slash in the the parent links. There is already a space after the slash.

I intentionally put the space after the slash and not before, because I like how it looks that way. So I don't plan to apply this patch unless a lot of people disagree with me or whatever. --[[Joey]]

Couldn't we export what's put between the links to a variable? For instance, I might actually want to set it to ' : ' or '→'. --[[madduck]]

Yes, please. This seems to be something a lot of people want to customize. (I certainly do -- a forward slash only looks natural to Unix users) --[[sabr]]

Joey, would I be right to summarize your position on this as "people who want to change the text of the templates should maintain their own version of the .tmpl files"? It's not clear to me how this todo item could be closed in a way acceptable to you, except perhaps as WONTFIX. --[[smcv]]

It's almost implicit in some of the discussion above but this can be achieved locally if you fork your templates directory from ikiwiki's, with an ammendment such as

<h1><TMPL_LOOP NAME="PARENTLINKS"><a
    href="<TMPL_VAR NAME=URL>"><TMPL_VAR NAME=PAGE></a>
    &rarr;
    </TMPL_LOOP><TMPL_VAR TITLE></h1>

This is what I do on my site for example. -- [[Jon]]
