This is used to generate a html - <link> tag, and also as a way to make the wiki treat one page as - linking to another without displaying a user-visible link. The latter - can be useful when using links to categorise pages. A html link tag - would look like this: - - \[[meta link="foo.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"]] - - A non-user-visible [[WikiLink]] would instead look like this: - - \[[meta link=otherpage]] - -* title - - Overrides the title of the page, which is generally the same as the - page name. - - Note that if the title is overridden, a "title_overridden" variable will - be set to a true value in the template; this can be used to format things - differently in this case. - -* license - - Specifies a copyright license for the page, for example, "GPL". - -* author - - Specifies the author of a page. - -* permalink - - Specifies a permanent link to the page, if different than the page - generated by ikiwiki. - -* date - - Specifies the creation date of the page. The date can be entered in - nearly any format, since it's parsed by [[cpan TimeDate]]. - -If the field is not treated specially (as the link and title fields are), -the metadata will be written to the generated html page as a <meta> -header. - -The field value is treated as HTML entity-escaped text, so you can include -a quote in the text by writing `"` and so on. +This plugin provides the [[ikiwiki/directive/meta]] [[ikiwiki/directive]], +which allows inserting various metadata into the source of a page.
