Using actions in Wikka pages
[skip to action list]
About actions
Actions are small (or not so small) pieces of code that generate automatic content within a page. An action may provide simple content, or it may provide an interactive "service" with a form for user input.Some actions are considered "core" and are essential to the functioning of Wikka as a WikiEngine. Others are better classified as "plugins", providing extra, less essential functionality. Of course, WikkaWiki comes bundled with all "core" actions and a nice collection of "plugins". Many Wikka users also make additional plugins available through the main site.
Using actions
To include an action in a page, simply edit the page and add the name of the action between double braces, e.g. {{myaction}}. Action names are case-insensitive.Many actions can be customized by providing extra parameters; a parameter must always have its value enclosed in double quotes, e.g. {{myaction par1="foo"}}. Unknown parameters are simply ignored; in some cases one or more parameters may be required. Multiple parameters are separated by spaces: {{myaction par1="foo" par2="bar"}}.
Content example:
Use {{wikkaversion}} to display the version of Wikka running this wiki:n/a
Service example:
Use {{googleform}} to display a Google search form. You may add an optional q parameter to specify a default search query, as in {{googleform q="Wikka"}}:List of available actions
