Note that I put comment-header in a <header> despite it being
below the comment. Using a <footer> would be confusing given
the class name. Also, the content is semantically closer to
a header than a footer.
Now the toplevel layout is:
<article>
<section><header><nav></section>
<aside>sidebar</aside>
<section>content</section>
<section>comments</section>
<footer>
</article>
And I managed to preserve all CSS ids and names in their prior structure,
so CSS should not need changed.
This is a first pass, it avoids needing to change style.css
except where it refers to tag types.
This goes a bit off the rails at the pageheader with its nested header.
Semantically, there should be an article around the whole page
header, content, and footer. Just as there will be an article around a
whole comment or inlined page header, content, and footer.
But that will mean changing the css that currently refers to pageheader to
refer to the enclosing article instead.
* Ikiwiki can be configured to generate html5 instead of the default xhtml
1.0. The html5 output mode is experimental, not yet fully standards
compliant, and will be subject to rapid change.
Whenever the DIV tag structure of page.tmpl has been changed, the DIV
tag structure of misc.tmpl must also change to reflect this, or else
any page which uses misc.tmpl will not look right. My intent is to
make ease parallel maintenance of these two files by eliminating
trivial/accidental difference between the two, so that duplicated
regions can be more readily identified (perhaps even mechanically).
(cherry-picked from commit 075980f94996e8f67d9632ae95b8bf41fdf09afa, but
without the changes to comments in page.tmpl)
Since Firefox version 3, it's done aggressive caching of visited pages, and
does not, by default, check if the cached content is still valid when
reloading or revisiting a page. By default, Firefox seems to not re-contact
the web server at all. Compare with eg, Epiphany and Chromium, which appear
to always check, and get back a 304 when the page is unchanged.
This header makes Firefox do the right thing, at least for html files. It
still over-caches if css, javascript, images, etc, are changed.
if "tag_autocreate=1" is set in the configuration. The pages will be created in
tagbase, if and only if they do not exist in the srcdir yet. Tag pages will be create from
"autotag.tmpl".
At this stage a second refresh is needed for the tag pages to be rendered.
Add autotag.tmpl template.
I chose not to have it override style.css, because style.css is not really
intended to be edited; the one from the underlay is intended to be used as
a base that local.css overrides.
I chose to use a plugin rather than changing the default behavior, both
because I didn't want to have to worry about possibly breaking backwards
compatability (though this seems unlikely), and because it seemed cleaner
to not include style template parameters in the main page template code.
I suppose someone might want a way to not override the toplevel
local.css, but instead include it as well as foo/local.css. Probably the
best way to do that would be to have foo/local.css @import ../local.css
(modulo browser compatability issues). Alternatively, edit page.tmpl
to always include the toplevel local.css, or swap out this plugin for
another one.
All the other actions are single words (apart from RecentChanges), and
are nouns (apart from Edit); saying "Source" is consistent with "History",
for instance.
Rationalle: Comments need to be user-editable so that they can be posted
via git commit etc.
The _comment directive is still supported, for back-compat.
Well, that was a PITA.
Luckily, this doesn't break guids to comments in rss feeds,
though it does change the links.
I haven't put in a warning about needing to rebuild to get
this fix. It's probably good enough for new comments to get the
fix, without a lot of mass rebuilding.
* repolist: New plugin to support the rel=vcs-* microformat.
* goodstuff: Include repolist by default. (But it does nothing until
configured with the repository locations.)
Put the icon after the name, mostly because it scans better on
non-graphical browsers where the alt text is displayed. And because the
name is really the more important part.
This is a mockup of Joey's idea; to do it properly, the icons should
move to the basewiki or to a comments underlay, and {x} should be
replaced with an OpenID logo (if one with clear licensing even exists).
Mostly to make it more visually similar to the page edit form.
I'm a bit uncertian about the placement of the page type selector,
and about removing the "Page type". May rethink that.
The thinking here is that having both a Discussion page and comments for
the same page is redundant, and certianly not what you want if you enable
comments for a page. At first I considered making configurable via pagespec
what pages got discussion links. But that would mean testing a new pagespec
for every page, and a redundant config setting to keep in sync. So intead,
take a lead from my previous change to make inlined pages have a comments
link, and change the discussion link at the top of regular pages to link to
their comments.
(Implementation is a bit optimised to avoid redundant pagespec checking.)
Jumping to the just posted comment was the imputus, but I killed a number
of birds here.
Added a INLINEPAGE template variable, which can be used to add anchors to
any inline template.
To keep that sufficiently general, it is the full page name, so the
comment anchors and links changed form.
Got rid of the FIXMEd hardcoded html anchor div.
More importantly, the anchor is now to the very top of the comment, not the
text below. So you can see the title, and how it attributes you.
Avoid changing the permalink of pages that are not really comments, but
happen to contain the _comment directive. I think that behavior was a bug,
though not a likely one to occur since _comment should only really be used
on comment pages.
This delays all comment formatting until the last possible time, allows
us to set metadata without worrying that commenters may be able to evade
it, and means that changes to how a comment is saved can be handled
gracefully. It also gives us somewhere to put the commenter's username
or IP address for later reference.
Google allows has a nice feature, sitesearch, that allows anyone to
limit search results to a specific site. Obviously, this feature can be
used to provide a search engine for the local ikiwiki site without the
need to install any additional software. Just enable the 'google' plugin
and make sure that --url uses the proper hostname. Thanks to Joey for
helping to get the Perl implementation right.
* Wrap everything before the content in <div class="inlineheader">
* Wrap the inlined content itself in <div class="inlinecontent">
* Wrap everything after the content in <div class="inlinefooter">
* Wrap header stuff, including actions, in <div class="pageheader">
(there is already a class="header", which is a subset of this, so
using id="header" would be confusing)
* Add class="pagefooter" to the existing <div id="footer">, for symmetry
firefox 3 smooshed the page location dropdown up to the page title,
obscuring descenders and underscores. Maybe that's a bug, since the CSS
didn't ask it to, but I think adding the extra space of a br at the top
looks better anyway.
FormBuilder makes it annoyingly hard to move a submit button to a
nonstandard place. The button name has to be "_submit" or FormBuilder will
ignore it.
