Perhaps I'm just too stupid to find the proper way to do this, but how
|
|
would I add a new page to the wiki without selecting to edit an already
|
|
installed one and frobbing the URL to direct to the to-be-created page?

Good point. Of course one way is to start with creating a link to the page,
|
|
which also helps prevent orphans. But other wikis based on CGI do have this
|
|
a bit easier, since they can detect an attempt to access a nonexistant page
|
|
and show an edit page. Ikiwiki can't do that (unless its web server is
|
|
configured to do smart things on a 404, like maybe call ikiwiki.cgi which
|
|
could be modified to work as a smart 404 -> edit handler).
|
|
|
|
Some wikis also provide a UI means for creating a new page. If we can find
|
|
something good, that can be added to ikiwiki's UI. --[[Joey]]

Hmm, maybe just a preprocessor directive that creates a form inside a page,
|
|
like is used for blog posting already would suffice? Then the main page of
|
|
a wiki could have a form for adding new pages, if that directive were
|
|
included there. Won't work for subpages though, unless the directive were
|
|
added to the parent page. However, unconnected subpages are surely an even
|
|
rarer thing to want than unconnected top level pages. --[[Joey]]

Maybe a very simple PHP frontend for serving the
|
|
statically generated pages, that would display a page editing form or
|
|
something like that for non-existent pages, wouldn't be too bad a thing
|
|
and resource hog? Just a thought... --[[Tuomov]]
