I am not sure something like that exists yet. I guess that needs some special macro or action that checks the wiki page namespace for some criteria, determines highest number present and then creates a page with n+1. Alternatively, using a timestamp yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss would also be likely unique enough. When done right and with subpages, MonthCalendar could even navigate that stuff (day level only). > I doubt a sequence can be done with what Moin provides so far. Am I > right? Yes, we don't provide counters. > Do I have to customize this macro? (I doubt I can achieve that :-( ) Looks like. Heads up, Python is easy. :) > How does one count and keep variables? Just query what's already there in the namespace (pagelist). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Moin-user mailing list Moin-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/moin-user
