Include Plugin

This plugin allows you to include another wiki page into the current one.

Usage

Simply enclose the ID of the page to be included in double curly brackets:

{{page>[id]#[section]&[flags]}}
{{section>[id]#[section]&[flags]}}
[id] page ID of the page to include; some macros are possible; shortcuts are resolved (:, ., ..) required
[section] limits the included page to a specific section and it's subsections optional; default is the whole page
[flags] flags delimited by &, see flags optional

The plugin offers two syntaxes, {{page>...}} and {{section>...}}.

  • page doesn't attempt to merge indentation, allowing the include to be used within other block syntax modes. Don't use multiple instances of {{page>...}} in the same section as it will cause indention problems.
  • section will attempt to align the include information with the current indentation level, allowing sections to be included seamlessly. This should only be used in plain DokuWiki markup as it will result in invalid XHTML if used within other blocks.

Section is aimed more at including sections and page at including whole pages, however both can be used to include whole pages or individual sections. The key difference is how they will interact with sections and block syntax modes on the host wiki page.

Configuration

The plugin can be configured in the DokuWiki configuration manager available in the admin menu.

noheader Don't display the header of the inserted section
firstseconly Display only the first section of the included page
showtaglogos Show/hide an image for the first tag (if the page has tags)
showfooter Show/hide page footer below the included page
showlink Makes the first headline of a included page/section a link to the included page/section
showpermalink Show/hide a permalink to the included page in the page footer
showdate Show/hide creation date of the page in the page footer
showuser Show/hide user name of the page creator in the page footer
showeditbtn Show/hide edit button below the included page
usernamespace Namespace for user pages (see showuser configuration) (default user)

Macros

Simple macros are possible to serve a page on a per user or per date base. These are:

@USER@ username
@NAME@ full name of user
@GROUP@ first group the user belongs to
@YEAR@ 4-digit year
@MONTH@ 2-digit month
@DAY@ 2-digit day

Examples:

{{page>@MONTH@:@DAY@:birthdays}}
{{page>@USER@:message}}

You may use flags to override default settings of the firstseconly and showfooter options:
