I prefer to use a current year, month and day to archive my blog posts, for example post/2007/11/12/foo-bar-baz path is better for me then post/foo-bar-baz. Unfortunately it seems that rootpage parameter of inline plugin is very static. Is it a chance to make it more dynamic? Now I have to use svn mkdir command to create appropriate subdirectories by hand.

I think that you could add builtin functions or variables, for example current_year() or $CURRENT_YEAR to usage inside rootpage parameter. Something like for Manoj's calendar plugin. Then my rootpage parameter could be like rootpage="post/current_year()/current_month()/current_day()". Another good hints are welcomed ;)

What's your opinion, Joey? I hope it's also useful for another ikiwiki lovers :)

Hello Joey! Is it a taboo subject? ;) --[[Paweł|ptecza]]

No, but I don't know of a way to do it that feels flexible and right.. Using functions as in your example doesn't feel right somehow. --[[Joey]]
