Hi, I've been stretching PmWiki (and Balu's blogging tools in particular) in almost certainly unintended ways by having sets of pages that start off by assigning a set of variables and then display them in a particular format, and then using a collection of pagelist formats to pull out particular views:
For example, I might have a set of pages called YYYY-MM-DD-label that start off like: (:if false:) Organisation: Euphoric State University Olink: http://www.euphoria.edu Contact: Morris Zapp Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] EL: [[ mailto:{$:Email} | {$:Email} ]] Linkname: [[ {$:Olink} | {$:Organisation} ]] Joindate: 01/04/07 ... ... and ending with, say: [[#entrybody]] !!! {$:Linkname} (joined on {$:Joindate}) [[#extendedbody]] || class="tiger" border=1 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=4 width=90% ||! Name ||! Email ||! Address || || ||{$:Contact} ||{$:EL} ||{$:ELaddress} || || ||{$:Contact2} ||{$:EL2} ||{$:ELaddress2} || So the first part of the page contains my data and the second half displays it. The reason for using variables, though, is so that I can have an aggregator page containing a pagelist: (:pagelist fmt=BlogOverviewTemplate#shortmemberlist group={$Group} name=2???-??-??-* count=999 order=$:Organisation :) which is formatted thus: [@ [[#shortmemberlist]] (:template first:)!!!Organisation (:template each:)* [[ {=$FullName}| {=$:Organisation} ]] - {=$:Olink} [[#shortmemberlistend]] @] Or however we need the data.... Now, I finally come to the actual question: Producing the individual pages manually using the ordinary pmwiki editor was fine when there were only two or three a week. However, we're going to need lots more, and it would be useful to use an input form to write out the individual pages. Is there a way in PmWiki of having a form that collects values of variables and then writes them out, not to an email, but to a new wiki page whose name is constructed from variables in the form?
