hi -
I want to create something like the "Blog This!" toolbar buttons that a lot of blogging tools have. When inspiration strikes, a simple "wiki this!" button to instantly create a new page.
First step is here, where it just creates the URL for a non-existent page, and goes there, opens the edit box.
http://wiki.pikkle.com/wikiThis.php (example) http://wiki.pikkle.com/wikiThis.php.txt (source)
basically it does this $wikiUrl = WIKIURL; $pageName = $_GET['pageName']; $targetUrl = WIKIURL . "index.php?title=$pageName&action=edit"; header("location: $targetUrl");
Of course, the new page is an orphan, but can be found from the "recent changes". But thats a little bit of a hassle.
* mediaWiki api :: inject ? Is there a way of creating a link <from> a page automagically? So the newly created pages are not Orphaned? eg something like a mediawiki api, where before jumping to this edit page my script could inject a new entry into a "whats new" or "date order" catch all grab-bag page?
* fill out the form if the "action=edit" is looking for some post fields, i could pre-fill out some stuff on the form, like categories or the URL i surfed in from... is this documented anywhere?
* editing templates I would like to also put this into the template of my wiki layout, but on opening up "MonoBook.php" it doesnt seem as obvious as i thought. googling didnt turn up any obvious answers, so would appreciate any links for template customization...
Also want to make a toolbar scriptlet out of this next...
Thanks!
