EditVariablesInTextArea

<< | PmWiki.Variables | >>

Collection of some edit tricks

Variables like {$Version} {$AuthId} ($Author} can be used in the textarea.

Some useful functionality, particularly in Page/Group Headers, Sidebars

Refer to the document itself

# [[http:?action=edit|edit]]
# [[{$Group}/{$Name}?action=edit|edit]]  
# [[{$FullName}?action=edit|edit]]

Refer to a relative path:

http:/pmwiki/pub/skins/pmwiki/pmwiki-32.gif

Show Logged-in User, link to logout:

[[http:?action=logout|{$AuthId}]]

[(approve links) edit diff]

(This shows nothing when the user is not logged in, but could show a login field. see Cookbook:ConditionalMarkupSamples)

Link to User's Profile

* [[Profiles/{$AuthId}|UserHome]] for example in SideBar \\
[[Profiles/{$Author}|UserHome]]

Conditonal Markup and {$ Variables

(seem to be inconsistant to me)

(:if authid:)  AuthID: {$AuthId}
(:if author:)  Author: {$Author}
{$Namespaced} | {$Titlespaced} | {$FullName}
{$ScriptUrl}

I thought it might be useful to make some more documentation in using variables and conditional markup. May be this page belongs to Cookbook or markup tricks in general, be free to move
