1 [[template id=plugin name=meta author="[[Joey]]"]]
4 This plugin allows inserting arbitrary metadata into the source of a page.
5 Enter the metadata as follows:
7 \[[meta field="value"]]
8 \[[meta field="value" param="value" param="value"]]
10 The first form sets a given field to a given value, while the second form
11 also specifies some additional sub-parameters.
13 The field values are treated as HTML entity-escaped text, so you can include
14 a quote in the text by writing `"` and so on.
20 Overrides the title of the page, which is generally the same as the
23 Note that if the title is overridden, a "title_overridden" variable will
24 be set to a true value in the template; this can be used to format things
25 differently in this case.
29 Specifies a license for the page, for example, "GPL". Can contain
34 Specifies the copyright of the page, for example, "Copyright 2007 by
35 Joey Hess". Can contain WikiLinks.
39 Specifies the author of a page.
43 Specifies an url for the author of a page.
47 Specifies a permanent link to the page, if different than the page
52 Specifies the creation date of the page. The date can be entered in
53 nearly any format, since it's parsed by [[cpan TimeDate]].
57 Adds a stylesheet to a page. The stylesheet is treated as a wiki link to
58 a `.css` file in the wiki, so it cannot be used to add links to external
61 \[[meta stylesheet=somestyle rel="alternate stylesheet"
66 Adds html <link> tags to perform OpenID delegation to an external
67 OpenID server. This lets you use an ikiwiki page as your OpenID. Example:
69 \\[[meta openid="http://joeyh.myopenid.com/"
70 server="http://www.myopenid.com/server"]]
74 Causes the page to redirect to another page in the wiki.
76 \[[meta redir=otherpage]]
78 Optionally, a delay (in seconds) can be specified. The default is to
79 redirect without delay.
81 It can also be used to redirect to an external url. For example:
83 \[[meta redir="http://example.com/"]]
85 However, this latter syntax won't be allowed if the [[htmlscrubber]] is
86 enabled, since it can be used to insert unsafe content.
88 For both cases, an anchor to jump to inside the destination page may also be
89 specified using the common `PAGE#ANCHOR` syntax.
91 If the field is not one of the above predefined fields, the metadata will be
92 written to the generated html page as a <meta> header. However, this
93 won't be allowed if the [[htmlscrubber]] is enabled, since it can be used to
94 insert unsafe content.
