$Author

$BaseName is currently “PmWiki.Basic Variables”

%apply=item id=Base Name?%$BaseName

%apply=item id=Base Name Patterns?%$BaseNamePatterns

Allows population of the {$BaseName} Page Variable?. The key to the hash is the pattern to be replaced and the value is the replacement string.

# If {$FullName} is 'Group.Page-Draft' then {$BaseName} is 'Group.Page'
$BaseNamePatterns['/-Draft$/'] = '';
# If {$FullName} is 'Comments-Group.Page' then {$BaseName} is 'Group.Page'
$BaseNamePatterns['/^Comments-/'] = '';

%apply=item id=Category Group?%$CategoryGroup

The Wiki Group used for categories. Defaults to ‘Category’. (See Categories). This variable is implicit in the markup [[!CategoryName]]

%apply=item id=Cookie Prefix?%$CookiePrefix

A string prefix to be prepended to cookies set from PmWiki scripts. It defaults to ‘ ’, but can be set to a different value to avoid conflicts with similar-named cookies from other applications, or to allow multiple wikis from the same domain to store separate cookies.

$DefaultGroup is currently “Main”

%apply=item id=Default Group?%$DefaultGroup

WikiGroup used by default (on startup) when no group is specified in the URL.

$DefaultName is currently “Home Page?”

%apply=item id=Default Name?%$DefaultName

Name of the default Home Page? of each Wiki Group. Used when the group doesn’t have a page with the same name as the group.

%apply=item id=Default Page?%$DefaultPage

Startup page when PmWiki is called without a specified page, normally $DefaultGroup.$DefaultName.

%apply=item id=Enable Local Config?%$EnableLocalConfig

Allows/disables local/config.php customizations (usually for a farm’s wikis). Can be set to zero in local/farmconfig.php to prevent the farm’s wikis’ local/config.php from being loaded.

%apply=item id=Enable Std Config?%$EnableStdConfig

Disables scripts/stdconfig.php and a large part of the core functionalities provided by the scripts in the pmwiki/scripts directory and outlined in the core documentation, unless included by your own local configuration (notably core markup rules, page history, skins, uploads). Allows you to completely reshape the way PmWiki behaves, if you need to.

%apply=item id=Enable PG Cust?%$EnablePGCust

Allows/disables per-page and per-group customizations. Can be set to zero in any local customization file to prevent remaining page/group customizations from being loaded.

%apply=item id=Enable Redirect?%$EnableRedirect

When enabled (default), causes page redirects to automatically be performed by the browser. Setting $EnableRedirect to zero causes PmWiki to pause and issue a “Redirect to link” message instead. This is sometimes useful when debugging recipes to be able to see the results of actions before page redirections occur. Not to be confused with $EnableRedirectQuiet.

%apply=item id=Enable Wiki Words?%$EnableWikiWords

Enable WikiWord processing.

%apply=item id=Enable WS Pre?%$EnableWSPre

%apply=item id=Logout Cookies?%$LogoutCookies

An array of cookie names to be removed when ?action=logout is invoked.

%apply=item id=Name Pattern?%$NamePattern

The regular expression pattern used for valid page names. Defaults to allowing pages beginning with an uppercase letter or digit, followed by sequences of alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores.

%apply=item id=Time Fmt?%$TimeFmt

The format to use for dates and times, in strftime() format. The default value is '%B %d, %Y at %I:%M %p', which gives dates of the form “September 8, 2005 at 10:57 PM”.

$Version is currently “pmwiki-2.2.128”

$Version

A string representing the release version of PmWiki.

$VersionNum is currently “2002128”

%apply=item id=Version Num?%$VersionNum

A number representing the release version of PmWiki, with the major and minor release components padded with zeroes to produce three digits. Thus, release “pmwiki-2.1.40” will have $VersionNum set to 2001040.

The first digit is a 2, the next three digits are the major release number, and the last three digits are the minor release number. Beta releases use 900–999 for the minor release number.

Thus:

2.1.0          2001000
2.1.1          2001001
...
2.1.27         2001027
