-This plugin allows inserting arbitrary metadata into the source of a page.
-Enter the metadata as follows:
-
- \[[meta field="value"]]
- \[[meta field="value" param="value" param="value"]]
-
-The first form sets a given field to a given value, while the second form
-also specifies some additional sub-parameters.
-
-You can use any field names you like, but here are some predefined ones:
-
-* link
-
- Specifies a link to another page. 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.
