-I was wondering what the best way to customise the templates is.
+This confuses me enormously. Perhaps because I am new to ikiwiki, to perl, to Linux, etc.
 
-Would it be best to copy them all into the wiki under version control or have them seperate?
+note and popups are templates? But they're not in the templates directory, and in my readings here, templates are supposed to be in the ../templates directory. 
 
-Thanks

-> Either way would work ok. From a security standpoint, keeping the templates under version control isn't entirely safe, if you have anonymous untrusted svn committers. Web commits won't be able to touch them though, so that's ok. --[[Joey]]

-Couldn't the [[templates/plugin]] template replace the "included" parameter
-with the same check used for "third-party plugin"?  Don't "third-party plugin"
-and "included in ikiwiki" form precisely complementary sets?  --[[JoshTriplett]]
