+turn any page on this wiki into a weblog by using the [[directive/inline]]
[[directive]]. For example:
\[[!inline pages="blog/* and !*/Discussion" show="10" rootpage="blog"]]
-
-Any pages that match the specified [[PageSpec]] (in the example, any
-[[SubPage]] of "blog") will be part of the blog, and the newest 10
-of them will appear in the page. Note that if files that are not pages
-match the [[PageSpec]], they will be included in the feed using RSS
-enclosures, which is useful for podcasting.
-
-The optional `rootpage` parameter tells the wiki that new posts to this
-blog should default to being [[SubPages|SubPage]] of "blog", and enables a
-form at the top of the blog that can be used to add new items.
-
-If you want your blog to have an archive page listing every post ever made
-to it, you can accomplish that like this:
-
- \[[!inline pages="blog/* and !*/Discussion" archive="yes"]]
-
-You can even create an automatically generated list of all the pages on the
-wiki, with the most recently added at the top, like this:
-
- \[[!inline pages="* and !*/Discussion" archive="yes"]]
-
-If you want to be able to add pages to a given blog feed by tagging them,
-you can do that too. To tag a page, just make it link to a page or pages
-that represent its tags. Then use the special `link()` [[PageSpec]] to match
-all pages that have a given tag:
-
- \[[!inline pages="link(life)"]]
-
-Or include some tags and exclude others:
-
- \[[!inline pages="link(debian) and !link(social)"]]
-
-## usage
-
-There are many parameters you can use with the `inline`
-directive. These are the commonly used ones:
-
-* `pages` - A [[PageSpec]] of the pages to inline.
-* `show` - Specify the maximum number of matching pages to inline.
- Default is 10, unless archiving, when the default is to show all.
- Set to 0 to show all matching pages.
-* `archive` - If set to "yes", only list page titles and some metadata, not
- full contents.
-* `description` - Sets the description of the rss feed if one is generated.
- Defaults to the name of the wiki.
-* `skip` - Specify a number of pages to skip displaying. Can be useful
- to produce a feed that only shows archived pages.
-* `postform` - Set to "yes" to enable a form to post new pages to a
- [[blog]].
-* `postformtext` - Set to specify text that is displayed in a postform.
-* `rootpage` - Enable the postform, and allows controling where
- newly posted pages should go, by specifiying the page that
- they should be a [[SubPage]] of.
-
-Here are some less often needed parameters:
-
-* `actions` - If set to "yes" add links to the bottom of the inlined pages
- for editing and discussion (if they would be shown at the top of the page
- itself).
-* `rss` - controls generation of an rss feed. If the wiki is configured to
- generate rss feeds by default, set to "no" to disable. If the wiki is
- configured to `allowrss`, set to "yes" to enable.
-* `atom` - controls generation of an atom feed. If the wiki is configured to
- generate atom feeds by default, set to "no" to disable. If the wiki is
- configured to `allowatom`, set to "yes" to enable.
-* `feeds` - controls generation of all types of feeds. Set to "no" to
- disable generating any feeds.
-* `template` - Specifies the template to fill out to display each inlined
- page. By default the `inlinepage` template is used, while
- the `archivepage` template is used for archives. Set this parameter to
- use some other, custom template, such as the `titlepage` template that
- only shows post titles. Note that you should still set `archive=yes` if
- your custom template does not include the page content.
-* `raw` - Rather than the default behavior of creating a [[blog]],
- if raw is set to "yes", the page will be included raw, without additional
- markup around it, as if it were a literal part of the source of the
- inlining page.
-* `sort` - Controls how inlined pages are sorted. The default, "age" is to
- sort newest created pages first. Setting it to "title" will sort pages by
- title, and "mtime" sorts most recently modified pages first.
-* `reverse` - If set to "yes", causes the sort order to be reversed.
-* `feedshow` - Specify the maximum number of matching pages to include in
- the rss/atom feeds. The default is the same as the `show` value above.
-* `feedonly` - Only generate the feed, do not display the pages inline on
- the page.
-* `quick` - Build archives in quick mode, without reading page contents for
- metadata. By default, this also turns off generation of any feeds.
-* `timeformat` - Use this to specify how to display the time or date for pages
- in the blog. The format string is passed to the strftime(3) function.
-* `feedpages` - A [[PageSpec]] of inlined pages to include in the rss/atom
- feeds. The default is the same as the `pages` value above, and only pages
- matches by that value are included, but some of those can be excluded by
- specifying a tighter [[PageSpec]] here.
-* `guid` - If a URI is given here (perhaps a UUID prefixed with `urn:uuid:`),
- the Atom feed will have this as its `<id>`. The default is to use the URL
- of the page containing the `inline` directive.
The `inline` directive is supplied by the [[!iki plugins/inline desc=inline]] plugin.
-This is a [[ikiwiki/directive]] that allows including one wiki page
-inside another. For example:
