This plugin allows wiki admins to configure the wiki using a web interface,
|
|
rather than editing the setup file directly. A "Setup" button is added
|
|
to the admins' preferences page.
|
|
|
|
Warning: This plugin rewrites your setup file. Any comments or unusual
|
|
things (such as perl code) in the setup file will not be preserved. Also,
|
|
it will only work correctly with new format setup files, as introduced in
|
|
ikiwiki 2.60. Older setup files have a "wrappers" section, which will not
|
|
be properly preserved if this plugin is used.
|
|
|
|
Most settings can be modified using the web interface. Plugins can be
|
|
enabled and disabled using it too. Some settings are not considered safe
|
|
enough to be manipulated over the web; these are still shown, by default,
|
|
but cannot be modified. To hide them, set `websetup_show_unsafe` to false
|
|
in the setup file. A few settings have too complex a data type to be
|
|
configured via the web. To mark additional settings as unsafe, you can
|
|
list them in `websetup_unsafe`.
|
|
|
|
Plugins that should not be enabled/disabled via the web interface can be
|
|
listed in `websetup_force_plugins` in the setup file.
|
|
|
|
When the setup is saved, the setup file will be rewritten with the new
|
|
settings, and the wiki will be refreshed, or rebuilt, to make the setip
|
|
changes take effect.
