For example, .../pmwiki.php?n=Main.SomeNewPage?action=edit?template=Main.ExistingPage creates Main.SomeNewPage using Main.ExistingPage as the initial source. > I reset 'rev' to 1 and left these specific entries for the new sidebar: > > targets=FooBar.SideBar > text=FooBar You really don't want to be editing the files in wiki.d directly. Use the ?action=edit feature of PmWiki -- it's much easier and also makes sure that all of the internal indexes and other items are kept up-to-date.
