`edittemplate` replaces its directive with a note like "edittemplate person registered for people/*". It would be nice if this were dependent on a `verbose` parameter and default to off. I don't see the value in it, and by disabling the output, I can keep template registration as close as possible to the action as needed. I think this (untested) patch might just do the trick: --- a/IkiWiki/Plugin/edittemplate.pm +++ b/IkiWiki/Plugin/edittemplate.pm @@ -46,8 +46,13 @@ sub preprocess (@) { $pagestate{$params{page}}{edittemplate}{$params{match}}=$params{template}; - return sprintf(gettext("edittemplate %s registered for %s"), - $params{template}, $params{match}); + if (yesno($params{verbose})) { + return sprintf(gettext("edittemplate %s registered for %s"), + $params{template}, $params{match}); + } + else { + return ''; + } } sub formbuilder (@) { --[[madduck]] [[!tags wishlist patch]] [[done]], though the patch I eventually applied uses "silent" as the parameter name.
