There are now 4 or more ikiwiki bootstrap themes flying around in the [[theme_market]]. It is quite confusing.

In order to figure out exactly which ones fares the best, i made test wikis for all of them. All the wikis have a sidebar with the sidebar plugin enable, so if you don't see it, it's because the theme doesn't support it.

* <http://bootstrap-jak.wiki.orangeseeds.org/> demos the [jak-linux.org](http://jak-linux.org/about/) original bootstrap 2 theme, now updated to 3.3.4. note that this theme needs the [bootmenu](https://github.com/dnstap/dnstap-ikiwiki/blob/master/libdir/IkiWiki/Plugin/bootmenu.pm) plugin to generate a menu, and doesn't support the sidebar plugin
* <http://bootstrap-ramseydsilva.wiki.orangeseeds.org> demos the [ramseydsilva](https://github.com/ramseydsilva/ikiwiki-bootstrap-theme) bootstrap 3 theme
* <http://bootstrap-hiatobr.wiki.orangeseeds.org> demos the [hiatobr](https://notabug.org/hiatobr/ikiwiki-bootstrap-theme-2) fork of the above
* <http://bootstrap-dequis.wiki.orangeseeds.org> demos the [dequis](https://github.com/dequis/ikiwiki-bootstrap-theme) theme, *another* fork of the above
* <http://bootstrap-tgpfeiffer.wiki.orangeseeds.org> demos the [tgpfeiffer](https://github.com/tgpfeiffer/ikiwiki-bootstrap-template) rewrite
* <http://bootstrap-anderbubble.wiki.orangeseeds.org/> demos the theme from [anderbubble](https://github.com/anderbubble/ikiwiki-bootstrap), another separate implementation

Hopefully this will help others figure out what the heck is going on here... Personnally, I think I prefer the JAK linux one, but i don't like the idea of depending on a theme-specific plugin...  -- [[anarcat]]

Update: I ended up forking the Jak theme also... My experience has been documented in [this blog post](http://anarc.at/blog/2015-09-09-bootstrap/?updated). --[[anarcat]]
