Update Info Plugin
UpdateInfoPlugin will add a "new" or "updated" icon after a
WikiWord link if a
%ISNEW%
tag is used after the link, and the linked topic was recently touched.
WikiWord %ISNEW%
will be expanded to:
- WikiWord - if the topic is neither new nor updated
- WikiWord - if the topic is younger than five days and is revision 1.1
- WikiWord - if the topic revision is higher than 1.1 and the topic was updated during the last five days
Default values for the "version" and "days" parameters are set sitewide here in
UpdateInfoPlugin#PluginSettings, but can be overridden pr. topic (or in WebPreferences pr. web), by setting variables
UPDATEINFOVERSION
and/or
UPDATEINFODAYS
.
Syntax Rules
The %ISNEW%-tag must be written after a WikiWord separated by
exactly one space.
Full %ISNEW% syntax takes one or two options:
- days: Changes the number of days a Topic is marked as new or updated
- version: Specifies which revision is still considered to be new
Full syntax overrides site/topic defaults.
Syntax Examples
-
MyTopic %ISNEW%
-
Web.ToPic %ISNEW%
-
GrødWeb.BlåBærGrød %ISNEW%
(I18N characters in WikiWords and WebNames are matched)
-
TopIc %ISNEW{days="15"}%
-
TopiC %ISNEW{days="20" version="1.4"}%
UpdateInfoPlugin supports these TWikiML link syntaxes:
- WikiWord
- (WikiWordAs)WebName.WikiWord
- [[WikiWord][link text]]
- [[WebName.WikiWord][link text]]
- [[link text]]
- [[link-text]] (links to non-WikiWord topics, i.e. topic names containing special chars like "-")

(All followed by the %ISNEW% syntax).
