Configuration

Plugins

For best results, update your configurations with the following:

Additionally, you may add the class truncate to the <span class=“title truncate”> to truncate the page title. This will truncate the title to a single line that fits within the prev and next buttons.

Include

For best results, add the following configuration files: [WEBROOT]/conf/plugin_lang/include/en/lang.php

<?php
/**
 *
 * English language file
 * @license    GPL 2 (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html)
 *
 */
$lang['readmore']              = 'Read more';

[WEBROOT]/conf/plugin_lang/include/fr/lang.php

<?php
/**
 *
 * French language file
 * @license    GPL 2 (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html)
 *
 */
$lang['readmore']              = 'Lire la suite';

Customization

You can change the logo, favicon and apple touch icon the same way as for the dokuwiki template.

Namespace Logos can be added using the media library. To show a different logo in a namespace, just make sure to add the custom logo.png in the namespace. This feature is recursive.

This templates supports multiple levels of a navigation. For that to work you need to add a page called topnav and add a list of links to it. (No other content is supported.) The example in the screenshot uses this as the content for the topnav page:

  * [[:start|Home]]
  * [[wiki:DokuWiki]]
    * [[wiki:Syntax]]
  * [[:Sample Page]]

~~NOCACHE~~

Other sidebar content

The content of a standard sidebar as configured in Configuration Setting: sidebar will be added between the navigation and the tools list.

Note

I haven't tested a sidebar yet since the last various updates I made. I will check it out soon.

Include hooks

Include hooks allow you to add additional HTML or PHP to the template without modifying any of the template files themselves. This template supports the same include hooks as the dokuwiki template.

Colour Schemes

The original WordPress theme came with 6 different colour schemes. Those can easily be achieved by changing the __theme_color__ and __theme_color_alt__ values in your local style.ini to the following:

Colour scheme theme_color theme_color_alt
turquois #1abc9c #16a085
red #e74c3c #c0392b
purple #a162ba #8e44ad
grey #95a5a6 #7f8c8d
green #2ecc71 #27ae60
blue #3498db #2980b9

This should actually be done in the styling plugin over the admin interface. No need to go out of your way to edit style.ini.

Note

I will be moving this to themes and setup a custom theme so users can set these colors and other css properties not currently supported by the styling plugin.

Content width

The width of the content area can be adjusted with the __content_width__ variable in the style.ini. Since DokuWiki version 2015-08-10 “Detritus” you can do that more easily with the styling plugin over the admin interface.

This is currently limited to px size. Will try to add a full-width option for the template.
