[Pmwiki-users] TIP: New Templates + WYSIWYG Editors

[Steven Leite]

Hello everyone,

Following up on a previous query, and somebody's suggestion, I was able to make it possible to edit template pages with my favorite wysiwyg editor so they work correctly on my server after they're uploaded (eg. pathing information for css and images files doesn't get broken).  I just thought I'd share:

{{Attach:PmWiki.Templates}}

This Tip applies to people in the following situation:

- you edit your templates locally on your computer with a wysiwyg editor
- once completed, you upload your template to a remote server

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Assuming you have a directory structure similar to this on your remote server:

/home/public_html/pmwiki/pub/skins/your_skin

and something like this on your local system:

c:/My Documents/My Webs/pmwiki/pub/skins/myskin

And assume for example you have these four files as part of your local template:

mytemplate.htm  (located in myskin/ folder)
image1.gif          (located in myskin/images/ folder)
image2.gif          (located in myskin/images/ folder)
mycss.css            (located in myskin/css/ folder

Here's how you should save the files on your local system so that they will still function when you upload them to your remote server:

MyWebs/pmwiki/pub/skins/myskin/mytemplate.htm
MyWebs/pmwiki/pub/skins/myskin/pub/skins/myskin/images/image1.gif
MyWebs/pmwiki/pub/skins/myskin/pub/skins/myskin/images/image2.gif
MyWebs/pmwiki/pub/skins/myskin/pub/skins/myskin/css/mycss.css

On your remote server, put the files in their normal directories like this:

/home/public_html/pmwiki/pub/skins/myskin/my_template.htm
/home/public_html/pmwiki/pub/skins/myskin/images/image1.gif
/home/public_html/pmwiki/pub/skins/myskin/images/image2.gif
/home/public_html/pmwiki/pub/skins/myskin/css/mycss.css
