Synopsis

Template = Parametrized blocks.

Include text from a wiki page and replace certain placeholders by parameters. Similiar to CreatePage with the template argument, but at run-time. Similiar to the mediawiki templates but not with the "|" parameter seperator.

Usage

  <?plugin Template page=Templates/Footer?>
  <?plugin Template page=Templates/Film vars="title=SomeFilm&year=1999" ?>
  {{Templates/Film|title=SomeFilm|year=1999}}

Plugin Arguments

Argument	Default Value	Description
page	(empty)	pagename to be included as template
vars	(empty)	optional parameters to be expanded inside the template

! Parameter expansion

vars="var1=value1&var2=value2"

We only support named parameters, not numbered ones as in mediawiki, and the placeholder is %%var%% and not Plugin Template failed. Page “~{var~” does not exist.} as in mediawiki.

The following predefined variables are automatically expanded if existing:

  pagename
  mtime     - last modified date + time
  ctime     - creation date + time
  author    - last author
  owner
  creator   - first author
  SERVER_URL, DATA_PATH, SCRIPT_NAME, PHPWIKI_BASE_URL and BASE_URL

<noinclude> .. </noinclude> is stripped

In work:

• ENABLE_MARKUP_TEMPLATE = true: (lib/InlineParser.php) Support a mediawiki-style syntax extension which maps

    {{TemplateFilm|title=Some Good Film|year=1999}}

to

    <?plugin Template page=TemplateFilm vars="title=Some Good Film&year=1999" ?>

Examples

  <?plugin Template page=TemplateExample vars="title=TestTitle" ?>

Standard syntax

Plugin Template failed. Page “TemplateExample” does not exist.

Shorter syntax

Plugin Template failed. Page “TemplateExample” does not exist.
