Suggestions of ideas for plugins: * list of registered users - tricky because it sorta calls for a way to rebuild the page when a new user is registered. Might be better as a cgi? > At best, this could only show the users who have logged in, not all > permitted by the current auth plugin(s). HTTP auth would need > web-server-specific code to list all users, and openid can't feasibly do so > at all. --[[JoshTriplett]] * It would be nice to be able to have a button to show "Differences" (or "Show Diff") when editing a page. Is that an option that can be enabled? Using a plugin? * For PlaceWiki I want to be able to do some custom plugins, including one that links together subpages about the same place created by different users. This seems to call for a plugin that applies to every page w/o any specific marker being used, and pre-or-post-processes the full page content. It also needs to update pages when related pages are added, so it needs to register dependencies pre-emptively between pages, or something. It's possible that this is a special case of backlinks and is best implemented by making backlinks a plugin somehow. --[[Joey]] * random page (cgi plugin; how to link to it easily?) * How about an event calendar. Events could be sub-pages with an embedded code to detail recurrance and/or event date/time * rcs plugin ([[JeremyReed]] has one he has been using for over a month with over 850 web commits with 13 users with over ten commits each.) * asciidoc or txt2tags format plugins Should be quite easy to write, the otl plugin is a good example of a similar formatter. >>Isn't there a conflict between ikiwiki using \[\[ \]\] and asciidoc using the same? >>There is a start of an asciidoc plugin at >>-- KarlMW * manpage plugin: convert **"ls(1)"** style content into Markdown like **\[ls(1)\]\(http://example.org/man.cgi?name=ls§=1\)** or into HTML directly. > With a full installation of groff available, man offers HTML output.

I would like to install some contributed plugins, but can not find anywhere to downlod them. > Not sure what you mean, the [[plugins/contrib]] page lists contributed plugins, and each of their pages tells where to download the plugin from.. --[[Joey]] * I was thinking about a tex plugin, to handle tex4ht files. I have since discovered that pandoc on the output from tex4ht seems to be good enough. --[[DavidBremner]] * Setting default values for the meta plugin in the setup file, particularly author, license, and copyright, would be useful There is work in progress at [[plugins/contrib/default_content_for___42__copyright__42___and___42__license__42__]] -- [[DavidBremner]] * What about a translator plugin using source-highlight or some alternative to view a collection of source code. I have a collection of e.g. java for students to look at. I'd like to e.g. update the tags in the java file, then rebuild the wiki. A first hack, can be found in [my wiki](http://www.cs.unb.ca/~bremner/wiki/software/java.pm) Among many possible improvements would be generalizing to handle other languages. I have to play some more. -- [[DavidBremner]]
