That should still work, and it might be useful to bring in a feature like this into 3.0 mainline as well, but we might also want to review the params a bit. Can you please open up a JIRA issue and attach a patch?

Hi All,

I have used JSPWiki 2.8 version for a while and I am not familiar with 3.0 features and development status. I decided to check first with email before doing any further investigations.

I am not sure is it possible to do same thing other way in 3.0 version. I checked that the modified files still exist in 3.0, but I am not sure are those working same way.

Need:
Make end user easier to create consistent wiki pages with template page with variables.

I found the clone feature, but I did not find similar variable expansion as for example in TWiki.

After modifcation with a couple of lines of extra code, I can call Edit.jsp with variables expanded in new clone page. Edit.jsp?page=Notes%20Db%20View %20times&clone=DefaultNote&expand=true&backpage=Db%20View%20times

So I can create this kind of links in my pages:
[{InsertPage page='Notes Db View times'},default=
'Auto-generated page. Add description and comments to page <a href="Edit.jsp?page=Notes Db View times&clone=DefaultNote&expand=true&backpage=Db View times"\>Notes Db View times</a>'}]

Content of page file Defaultnote.txt:
![{$backpage}]
[Edit:{$pagename}]
----



Modified files FCK.jsp and plain.jsp:

--------------
...
<%
String clone = request.getParameter( "clone" );
if( clone != null )
{
  WikiPage p = engine.getPage( clone );
  if( p != null )
  {
      AuthorizationManager mgr = engine.getAuthorizationManager();
PagePermission pp = new PagePermission( p, PagePermission.VIEW_ACTION );

      try
{ if ( mgr.checkPermission( context.getWikiSession(), pp ) )
        {
          usertext = engine.getPureText( p );
        }
      }
catch( Exception e ) { /*log.error( "Accessing clone page "+clone, e );*/ }
//**********************************************************//
//Adding parameter expand to url with clone variables like {$pagename},... are expanded
      //Note variables are plain {$name} without []-characters
      //by Jukka Karvanen
      String expand = request.getParameter( "expand" );
      if( expand != null )
      {
usertext =engine.getVariableManager().expandVariables(context ,usertext);
      }
//**********************************************************//
  }
}
%>

What you think is this feasible also for 3.0 version?
