-Allows including one wiki page inside another, generating blogs and RSS
-feeds. See [[blog]] for details.
+[[template id=plugin name=inline core=1 author="[[Joey]]"]]
 
-This plugin is enabled by default.
+This is a [[PreProcessorDirective]] that allows including one wiki page
+inside another. For example:
+
+       \[[inline pages="blog/*"]]
+
+The most common use of inlining is generating blogs and RSS or Atom feeds.
+See [[blog]] for details.
+
+## usage
+
+Here are descriptions of all the supported parameters to the `inline`
+directive:
+
+* `pages` - A [[PageSpec]] of the pages to inline.
+* `show` - Specify the maximum number of matching pages to inline.
+  Default is 10, unless archiving, when the default is to show all.
+  Set to 0 to show all matching pages.
+* `skip` - Specify a number of pages to skip displaying. Can be useful
+  to produce a feed that only shows archived pages.
+* `rss` - controls generation of an rss feed. On by default if the wiki is
+  configured to use rss feeds, set to "no" to disable.
+* `atom` - controls generation of an atom feed. On by default if the wiki is
+  configured to use atom feeds, set to "no" to disable.
+* `feeds` - controls generation of all types of feeds. Set to "no" to
+  disable generating any feeds.
+* `postform` - Set to "yes" to enables a form to post new pages to a [[blog]].
+* `postformtext` - Set to specify text that is displayed in a postform.
+* `rootpage` - Also enables a form to post new pages to a [[blog]], and
+  allows specifying of a page that is used as the parent page for new pages.
+* `archive` - If set to "yes", only list page titles and some metadata, not
+  full controls.
+* `quick` - Build archives in quick mode, without reading page contents for
+  metadata. By default, this also turns off generation of any feeds.
+* `template` - Specifies the template to fill out to display each inlined
+  page. By default the `inlinepage` [[template|wikitemplates]] is used, while
+  the `archivepage` template is used for archives. Set this parameter to
+  use some other, custom template, such as the `titlepage` template that
+  only shows post titles. Note that you should still set `archive=yes` if
+  your custom template does not include the page content.
+* `raw` - Rather than the default behavior of creating a [[blog]],
+  if raw is set to "yes", the page will be included raw, without additional
+  markup around it, as if it were a literal part of the source of the 
+  inlining page.
+* `description` - Sets the description of the rss feed if one is generated.
+  Defaults to the name of the wiki.
+* `actions` - If set to "yes" add links to the bottom of the inlined pages 
+  for editing and discussion (if they would be shown at the top of the page
+  itself).
+* `sort` - Controls how inlined pages are sorted. The default, "age" is to
+  sort newest created pages first. Setting it to "title" will sort pages by
+  title, and "mtime" sorts most recently modified pages first.
+* `reverse` - If set to "yes", causes the sort order to be reversed.
+* `feedpages` - A [[PageSpec]] of inlined pages to include in the rss/atom
+  feeds. The default is the same as the `pages` value above, and only pages
+  matches by that value are included, but some of those can be excluded by
+  specifying a tighter [[PageSpec]] here.
+* `feedshow` - Specify the maximum number of matching pages to include in
+  the rss/atom feeds. The default is the same as the `show` value above,
+  and it cannot be larger than that value, but can be set to a smaller
+  value to avoid producing excessively large feed files.
