Trac WikiTemplates Plugin

WikiTemplates is a Trac plugin. This plugin will provide you a way to include parts of other wiki pages, the templates, into our current wiki page.

Why This? You could have a template that makes the text red colored with a monospace font, and use the template instead of making multiple span's,

Some Usage Examples

The template:

{{{
#!html
<span style="color: #339900; font-family: monospace;">{{1}}</span>
}}}

To use that template, one would put on the wiki page being edited:

[[T(GreenText|The Green Text Passed)]]

The HTML output:

<span style="color: rgb(51, 153, 0); font-family: monospace;">The Green Text Passed</span>

Another example would be:

The template:

{{{
#!html
<span style="color: #339900; font-family: monospace;">{{1}}</span> <span style="color: red;">{{2}}</span
}}}

Wiki implementation:

[[T(GreenAndRedText|The Green Text Passed|And The Red Not Monospace Text)]]

The HTML Output(with line breaks for readability):

<span style="color: rgb(51, 153, 0); font-family: monospace;">The Green Text Passed</span>
<span style="color: red;">And The Red Not Monospace Text</span>

Of course this isn't that really usefull but just imagine the possibilities, too many to name here.

As of version >=0.3.0, WikiTemplates also supports inclusion of whole wiki pages(with no arguments parsing) and even off site pages. Examples:

Include a wiki page:

[[Include(WikiPageName)]]

Include an off-site page:

[[Include(http://the.url.to.site.com/page)]]

You can find more info on the WikiTemplates site where bugs and new feature requests should go to.

If you got an Internal Error after installation, you could have to upgrade your trac database : #trac-admin /path/to/repos upgrade

Version 0.3.0rc3 of WikiTemplates? caused an JavaScript? error in IE. I have a fix for that. I know this night not be the best place to put this up, but http://wikitemplates.ufsoft.org/ is down at this moment and I don't have time to wait. You need to edit the wikitemplets.js file as below:

function delete_mainnav_templatesbtn() {
	var templatesbtn =  document.getElementById('templatesbtn');
	if(templatesbtn) {
		templatesbtn.parentNode.removeChild(templatesbtn);
	}
}
