I set iw_local: 1
iw_trans: 1 is only on the wiki I want to transclude content onto
If I have this for iw_url:
http://against-the-day.pynchonwiki.com/wiki/$1
and this code on the target wiki page:
{{pwiki:Help}} (Help is a template I created)
I get this in the preview:
[Template fetch failed for http://against-the-day.pynchonwiki.com/
wiki/Template%3AHelp?action=render; sorry]
If I have this for the iw_url:
http://against-the-day.pynchonwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=$1
it pulls in the whole page, styles and all. Doesn't work at all.
