## online page editing
-* Missing conflict detection, just overwrites changes and does not svn up
- first..
-
- How to resolve this? Would this work when saving a page?
-
- 1. write changes to wc
- 2. svn up (so it can merge with any other changes)
- 3. check for conflicts
- 4. if conflicts, read in page w/conflict markers, svn revert page, and display resolution form
- 5. otherwise, svn commit
- 6. if commit fails, perhaps we were raced and there are conflicts still; so check for conflicts and if found, goto 2.
-
- No, it won't work, because the other committer updates the srcdir when they make their commit, so svn does not get a chance to merge in the changes on update in step 2. Hmm..
-
- Well, it could keep track of the version number of the page it started editing, and if it's changed during the edit, ask svn to merge all changes from that version number to head into the page after writing it out. Doing that without races with other svn committers seems tricky.
-
- If each commit operated in a separate copy of the wc, that was created for the commit, the steps above would work. But it would be very expensive to make and maintain all those copies.
-
- Note that unless we use `svn lock`, we really can't "warn" about concurrent edits and such the way other wikis do, which is ok, since that system sucks anyway. Using svn up for smart merging will be much nicer most of the time.
-
* Eventually, might want page deletion.
* Eventually, might want file upload.
## recentchanges
-* Should support RSS for notification of new and changed pages.
-
- This can be a static rss file that is generated when the moo
-is built. (As long as all changes to all pages is ok.)
-
* Should support mail notification of new and changed pages.
Hmm, should be easy to implement this.. it runs as a svn post-coommit hook
page that lets them tune it, and probably choose literal or glob by
default.
+ I think that the new globlist() function should do everything you need.
+ Adding a field to the prefs page will be trivial --[[Joey]]
+
The first cut, I suppose, could use one sendmail process to batch-mail all
subscribers for a given page. However, in the long run, I can see users
demanding a bit of feature creep:
also needs to tie into the main logic, to determine what pages need to be
renered, so maybe that won't be a plugin.
+## blogging
+
+- Add a small form at top and bottom of a blog to allow entering
+ a title for a new item, that goes to a template to create the new page.
+- Should probably add params to control various rss fields like the blog
+ title, its author email, its copyright info, etc.
+
## revisit case
Being case insensative is handy, but it does make the [[BackLinks]] a bit
## html
-Make the html valid. Add css.
+Make the html valid. Add css and prettify. Make RecentChanges use table for formatting, and images to indicate web vs svn commits and to link to diffs.
+
+All of this should be doable w/o touching a single line of code, just editing the [[templates]] BTW.
## sigs
wiki and not adding nonstandard markup. And it's not significantly hard to
type "--\[[Joey]]", and as to the date, we do have page history.
-## recentchanges links to commit diffs
-
-Would take a bit more viewcvs integration, let the be a "[diff]" link in
-recentchanges that goes to the diff for any listed change.
-
## recentchanges more than 100
Possibly add "next 100" link to it, but OTOH, you can just use svn log if
you need that data..
-## base wiki
-
-Need a toned down version of this wiki with a basic frontpage, sandbox and
-docs to use as a seed for new wikis.
-
## search
+* page name substring search
* full text (use third-party tools?)
+
+## lists
+
* list of all missing pages
-* list of all pages or some kind of page map
+
+This could be its own static pages updated when other pages are updated.
+Perhaps this ties in with the pluggable renderers stuff.
## page indexes
-Might be nice to support automatically generating an index based on headers in a page, for long pages. The question is, how to turn on such an index?

+## basewiki underlay
+
+Rather than copy the basewiki around everywhere, it should be configured to
+underlay the main srcdir, and pages be rendered from there if not in the
+srcdir. This would allow upgrades to add/edit pages in the basewiki.
+
+Impementaion will be slightly tricky since currently ikiwiki is hardcoded
+in many places to look in srcdir for pages. Also, there are possible
+security attacks in the vein of providing a file ikiwiki would normally
+skip in the srcdir, and tricking it to processing this file instead of the
+one from the underlaydir.
+
+There are also difficulties related to removing files from the srcdir, and
+exposing ones from the underlaydir. Will need to make sure that the mtime
+for the source file is zeroed when the page is removed, and that it then
+finds the underlay file and treats it as newer.
+
+## wikilinks features
-## page locking
+- \[[John|Fred]] is a Wikipedia method for linking to the one page
+ while displaying it as the other, Kyle would like this.
-Some wikis will need the abiity to lock a page, or the whole wiki, so that only admins can edit them. Probably using the same globbing as for recentchanges mails to determine what to lock.
+## Logo
-Probably it's ok if locking is only supported for web commits.
+ikiwiki needs a logo. I'm thinking something simple like the word "ikiwiki"
+with the first "k" backwards; drawn to show that it's "wiki" reflected.
