[pmwiki-users] Edit Link, ?n=page?action=edit

[Firefly]

That is very clever, its exactly the sort of thing I will need on my site
when I have finished doing this project. 

 

At the moment, I’ve been adding 

 

(:if –pagename:) to my headers and footers so it shows only on the editable
pages.

 

Thanks for the help you two, I’ll defiantly use both, because they will work
on either of my sites.

Hi Firefly

I put this script in my Site.Footer page and it shows up wherever a
user has edit privileges.  Where I don't want the button to show, I
use (:nofooter:) in the group footer (or in a page).  It works really 
nice, for me as an admin also.  I get the button just about anywhere I
need it.

[[<<]]
(:if auth edit:)
(:input form "index.php?n={$FullName}?action=edit":)
(:input submit value="Edit Page":) 
(:input end:)
(:if:)


Nice touch Caveman.  At this point I'll add in another technique I use on
some of my sites.

Here is the definition of my Site.PageFootMenu

->''$[Page last modified on] {$LastModified}'' 
[[<<]]
(:if auth edit:)
*[[{$Name}?action=edit | $[Edit] ]]
*[[{$Name}?action=diff | $[Page History] ]]
*%newwin%[[{$Name}?action=source | $[Source] ]]
*[[Site.Search?q={$Group}/ | $[List Group] ]] 
(:ifend:)
(:if auth admin:)
* [[Site.Search?q=link={$FullName} | $[Backlinks] ]]
*[[{$Name}?action=upload | $[Attach File] ]]
*[[{$Name}?action=attr| $[Attributes] ]]
*[[{$Group}.GroupAttributes| $[Group Attributes] ]] 
(:ifend:)

This means the standard row of buttons only appear if you already have
authority to use them.  I do this because I am primarily using PmWiki as a
website builder and not as a collaborative system.  Therefore nobody
(visitors to my site) generally realise it is a Wiki (except for the
'powered by'!) 

When I want to edit a page, I just manually append ?action=login to the URL
and enter my admin password and then I can whisk around the site editing
anything and everything.  Also, when I am logged in as Admin I get a new
link on my SideBar which goes to my Site.Admin page which in turn contains
links to things such as skin configs, edit sidebar, sandbox, etc.
