Bringing Back the Original Charm: Updates to Writr
Author(s): Louis Ouellet
The Writr
theme has always been known for its clean, modern aesthetic, popularized by its distinctive title styling on WordPress. In updating the Writr
template for DokuWiki, I wanted to preserve this unique look while ensuring the template’s functionality works seamlessly with DokuWiki’s features. This update not only revives the original post and page title styling from WordPress but also introduces support for the include plugin, bringing new levels of flexibility and usability to your DokuWiki pages.
Revitalizing the Original Title Aesthetics
One of the main goals of this update was to recreate the classic post and page title styling that defines the WordPress Writr
theme. By carefully matching the font, spacing, and color scheme, I aimed to bring the familiar look of Writr
titles to DokuWiki without losing any of its original charm.
For those familiar with the WordPress version, these updated titles bring a sense of continuity. Readers and contributors alike will appreciate the visual appeal that this design choice brings, enhancing readability and reinforcing a professional tone across the wiki.
Seamless Integration with the Include Plugin
As part of this update, I’ve also added support for DokuWiki’s include plugin. This plugin plays a vital role in DokuWiki environments by enabling users to easily include the contents of one page within another. The enhanced support ensures that the template’s styling and layout remain consistent, even when incorporating complex page structures.
Conclusion
With this update to the Writr
template, I’ve aimed to bring the best of both worlds to DokuWiki—preserving the clean, classic look of the original Writr
theme while incorporating modern, flexible features. By combining the familiar title styling with robust support for the include plugin, this update transforms the Writr
template into a powerful tool for DokuWiki users who value both aesthetics and functionality.
If you’re looking for a template that respects DokuWiki’s capabilities while adding a touch of elegance, give the updated Writr
template a try. It’s a new way to experience DokuWiki, blending classic styling with modern convenience.
