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.

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.

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.

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.
