Instead of having the users' pages start with one of your own, data-included, pages as a template, you could use EditTemplates to pre-configure new pages in the users' groups with generic forms for them to fill in. I have a "Templates" wikigroup in my standard installation, with templates pages for HomePage, SideBar, etc. These are all designed just for the purpose of pre-populating new pages elsewhere in the wiki, so have (:comments ... :) and so forth to help authors understand how to use them. _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users
