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?
-* a [[todo/link_map]]
-* [[todo/sigs]] ?
-* [[pageindexes]]
-* Wiki stats, such as total number of links, most linked to pages
+> 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]]
-* Support [[RecentChanges]] as a regular page containing a plugin that
- updates each time there is a change, and statically builds the recent
- changes list. (Would this be too expensive/inflexible? There might be
- other ways to do it as a plugin, like making all links to RecentChanges
- link to the cgi and have the cgi render it on demand.)
-
- Or using an iframe
- to inline the cgi, although firefox seems to render that nastily with
- nested scroll bars. :-(
+* 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
or something. It's possible that this is a special case of backlinks and
is best implemented by making backlinks a plugin somehow. --[[Joey]]
-* interwiki links
-
* random page (cgi plugin; how to link to it easily?)
-* navigation or side bar plugin, would use a specific page as the side bar
- and include it into the other pages as specified by the template. The
- pagetemplate hook was added to allow for this.
+* 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 <http://www.mail-archive.com/asciidoc-discuss@metaperl.com/msg00120.html>

+
+* 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. Might
+> take some fiddling to make it fit into the ikiwiki templates, and you might
+> or might not want to convert pages in the SEE ALSO as
+> well. --[[JoshTriplett]]
+
+* As I couldn't find another place to ask, I'll try here. 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]]
-All the kinds of plugins that blogging software has is also a possibility:
+* 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__]]

-* Blog post calendar
-* technocrati pinger
-* Tag stuff?
+* 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.
