From d534483b9befc360b3d973091b1b7f5692f15a6e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: joey Date: Fri, 2 Jun 2006 04:49:12 +0000 Subject: * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template. * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages, like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation. * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages. * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes. --- doc/tags.mdwn | 18 ++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+) create mode 100644 doc/tags.mdwn (limited to 'doc/tags.mdwn') diff --git a/doc/tags.mdwn b/doc/tags.mdwn new file mode 100644 index 000000000..fd2315f88 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/tags.mdwn @@ -0,0 +1,18 @@ +While ikiwiki supports hierarchically categorising pages by creating +[[SubPage]]s, that's often not flexible enough, and it can also be useful +to tag pages in various non-hierarchical ways. + +Since this is a wiki, tagging is just a form of linking. For example, since +this page links to [[features]], it can be considered to have something to +do with ikiwiki's features. If you want to put pages into a category, the +typical wiki way to do so is to create a "CategoryFoo" page and link pages +in the category to it. That is just another form of tagging. + +Sometimes you may want to tag a page without putting a visible link on it. +The [[meta_plugin|plugins/meta]] allows you to do so, like this: + + \\[[meta link=mytag]] + +One way to use these tags is to create a [[blog]] of pages that have a +particular set of tags. [[Plugins]] can be written to do anything else with +tags that you might desire. -- cgit v1.2.3
