+Templates are located in `/usr/share/ikiwiki/templates` by default;

+Ikiwiki uses the HTML::Template module as its template engine. This
+supports things like conditionals and loops in templates and is pretty
+easy to learn. All you really need to know to modify templates is this:
+
+* To insert the value of a template variable, use `<TMPL_VAR variable>`.
+* To make a block of text conditional on a variable being set use
+  `<TMPL_IF variable>text</TMPL_IF>`.
+* To use one block of text if a variable is set and a second if it's not,
+  use `<TMPL_IF variable>text<TMPL_ELSE>other text</TMPL_IF>`
