The Natural Skin Plugin %TOC% ---++ Description <table style="float:right"> <tr> <td><img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/../NatSkin/wikiringlogo40x40.png"></td> <td><a href="http://wikiring.de" title="Make your Wiki ring!" style="text-decoration:none;color:#0065CD"> Powered by <br /> <nop>WikiRing Consultants </a> </td> </tr> </table> This is the supplemental plugin for the NatSkin. Its main purpose is to supply "skin states" to control different styles and variations to be switched dynamically while you are online. The documentation of the NatSkinPlugin only covers the additional tags that have been implemented. Have a look at the NatSkin topic for more information. ---++ Syntax ---+++ CURREV *Syntax*: =%<nop>CURREV%= returns the current topic revision (compatible among all TWiki engines) see also: [[#NATMAXREV][NATMAXREV]], [[#NATREVISIONS][NATREVISIONS]] [[#PREVREV][PREVREV]], ---+++ FORMBUTTON *Syntax*: =%<nop>FORMBUTTON{";lt;format>"}%= returns a link on to add or change the form attached to a topic. This will be shown on the edit screen depending on WEBFORMs being defined or not. More precisely FORMBUTTON returns * an empty string if there are no WEBFORMS defined * or an "Add form" link if there are but no form is attached yet * or a "Change form" link to change the current form The optional =%lt;format>= string may contain the following variables * =$url=: the url of the link * =$action=: the link text * =$1=: the complete anchor including the link and the text For example =%<nop>FORMBUTTON{"| $1"}%= will generate a pipe and the formbutton if possible. See the =edit.nat.tmpl= template file of the !NatSkin. ---+++ GETSKINSTYLE *Syntax*: =%<nop>GETSKINSTYLE%= get the current skin style; the priority is 1 urlparam =style=<name>=, 2 value of the session variable =NATSKIN_STYLE= and 3 preference value =SKINSTYLE= set in (a) the user preferences (b) the WebPreferences or (c) %TWIKIWEB%.TWikiPreferences ---+++ IFSKINSTATE *Syntax*: =%<nop>IFSKINSTATE{<tests> then="..." else="..."}%= conditionally returns content depending on the current skin state; <tests> can be * =style="<name>"=: test if the current style is <name> * =variation="<name>"=: test if the style variation is <name> * =border="on,off,thin"=: test if the current border is on, off or "thin" * =buttons="on,off"=: test if the web buttons are currently on or off * =sidebar="left,right,off"=: test if the sidebar is currently on the right, left or off * =searchbox="top,pos1,pos2,pos3,off"=: test if the searchbox is currently on given position or off * =release="beijing,cairo,dakar"=: test if the twiki release this plugin is installed on is Beijing, Cairo or Dakar * =action="view,edit,preview,..."=: test the current topic action * =glue="on,off"=: control wether to eat surrounding whitespaces or not * =final="<name>"=: test if a skin state variable called <name> is set to be changeable or not using the the FINALPREFERENCES setting; known names are are "style", "sidebar", "buttons", "border", "variation" or "searchbox"; "all" tests wether you can vary the skin at all; "switches" tests of you can change at least one of "sidebar", "buttons", "border" or "searchbox" The tag will render the "then" content if all tests evaluate to true and the "else" content otherwise. Tested strings can be regular expressions. ---+++ Sectional IFSKINSTATETHEN *Syntax*: <verbatim> %IFSKINSTATETHEN{<tests>}% <then content> [%ELSIFSKINSTATE{<tests>}% <elsif content>]* [%ELSESKINSTATE% <else content>]? %FISKINSTATE% </verbatim> This is the multi-line version of [[#IFSKINSTATE][IFSKINSTATE]] that uses the same tests as above but takes the content from between the sections; thus, arbitrary <nop>TWikiML might be rendered conditionaly. IFSKINSTATETHEN expressions can be nested safely. Within a single IFSKINSTATETHEN the ELSIFSKINSTATE parts can be repeated arbitrarily. Before rendering the =<then|elsif|else condition>= any =$nop= string will be removed first. Thereby nested <nop>TWikiML expressions can be prevented from being expanded in advance. ---+++ KNOWNSTYLES *Syntax*: =%<nop>KNOWNSTYLES%= returns a list of all known skin styles. ---+++ KNOWNVARIATIONS *Syntax*: =%<nop>KNOWNVARIATIONS%= returns a list of all known styles variations. ---+++ NATFORMLIST *Syntax*: =%<nop>NATFORMLIST{...}%= returns a formatted list of forms that can be attached to a topic. typically used in the =changeform= skin template. paramters: * =header= * =format= * =footer= * =separator= * =selected= * =web= * =topic= ---+++ NATMAXREV *Syntax*: =%<nop>NATMAXREV%= substitute for =%<nop>MAXREV%= which differes all too much on Beijing, Cairo and Dakar. This version grants to behave the same. ---+++ NATREVISIONS *Syntax*: =%<nop>NATREVISIONS%= substitute for the =%<nop>REVISIONS%= tag which only works on the TWiki:Plugins/PatternSkin. ---+++ NATWEBLOGO *Syntax*: =%<nop>NATWEBLOGO%= returns either a textual or a graphical a logo to be used in the header bar depending on a set of preference variables. NATWEBLOGO will check for a couple of preference variables in the following order: 1 return =%<nop>NATWEBLOGONAME%= if defined 1 return =%<nop>NATWEBLOGOIMG%= if defined 1 return =%<nop>WEBLOGOIMG%= if defined 1 return =%<nop>WIKITOOLNAME%= if defined 1 or return the string 'TWiki' otherwise The =...IMG%= cases will return a full =<img src="..." ... />= tag whereas the =...NAME%= cases will return the string only. So given you want to have the string <nop>%WIKITOOLNAME% in the logo position when using NatSkin but not so when using a different skin on the same site. Then add the following to the %MAINWEB%.TWikiPreferences: <verbatim> * Set NATWEBLOGONAME = %WIKITOOLNAME% * Set WEBLOGOIMG = /path/to/your/defaultlogo.gif </verbatim> If you want to have a different logo using NatSkin than using another skin on the same site then add the following to the %MAINWEB%.TWikiPreferences: <verbatim> * Set NATWEBLOGOIMG = /path/to/your/natskinlogo.gif * Set WEBLOGOIMG = /path/to/your/defaultlogo.gif </verbatim> ---+++ PREVREV *Syntax*: =%<nop>PREVREV%= returns the previous topic revision taking =NumberOfRevisions= into account ---+++ SETSKINSTATE *Syntax*: =%<nop>SETSKINSTATE{...}% set the skin state using TWiki markup. This is different from using topic preference variables in three respects: (1) you can set the skin state at any place now, i.e. INCLUDEing another topic where that topic's preference variables are not evaluated. (2) SETSKINSTATE "may come to late" in the rendering pipeline so that it does not take effect throughly; topic preferences are fetched before rendering starts. (3) it is not checked if the resulting skinstate is "valid" when you use SETSKINSTATE; this _is_ the case if you use preferences values The following arguments are known and can be used in any combination: * buttons="..." * sidebar="..." * variation="..." * style="..." * searchbox="..." * border="..." The values to these keys will be commited into the skin state at once. Multiple invokations will override any former setting. ---+++ USERACTIONS *Syntax*: =%<nop>USERACTIONS{"<format>" ...}%= display separate sets of actions for anonymous or authenticated users. * sep="<span> class="natSep">|</span>": separator between actions * guest="$login$sep$register$sep$print": format string of actions for guests * format="$user$sep$logout$sep$print<br />$edit$sep$attach$sep$move$sep$raw$sep$diff$sep$more": format string of actions for authenticated users * restrictedactions="...": list of user actions that are disabled if the user has got no write access to the current topic * help="...": help topic used for =$help=, defaults to %TWIKIWEB%.TWikiUsersGuide (see below) The "guest" and "format" format strings can use the following variables * $attach: link to "attach" topic action * $diff: link to diff * $edit: link to edit * $help: link to a help page * $login: link to log in * $logout: link to log out * $more: link to more dialog * $move: link to move dialog * $pdf: link to export pdf using the TWiki:Plugins/GenPDFAddOn * $print: link to print action * $raw: link to display topic in raw format * $register: link to registration * $sep: separator string * $user: name of current authenticated user ---+++ WEBCOMPONENT *Syntax*: =%<nop>WEBCOMPONENT{"name" web="<name>" lineprefix="<prefix>" multiple="<anything>"}%= *Arguments*: * =name=: The name of the !WebComponent topic. * =web="<name>"=: The web to fetch the component from. Default to the current web. * =lineprefix="<prefix>"=: A prefix to be added to each line of the web component topic before inclusion. Typically three space characters. * =multiple= : If defined WEBCOMPONENT will allow for multiple inclusions of the same web component topic. display a web component. A web component "<nop>MyComponent" is searched looking for 1 <nop>MyComponent in the current web, 2 <nop>TWikiMyComponent in the %MAINWEB% web, 3 <nop>TWikiMyComponent in the %TWIKIWEB% web and 4 <nop>MyComponent in the %TWIKIWEB% web. The WEBCOMPONENT tag will retrieve the component where it was found first. Thereby every web can define a component of its own but if it is not defined locally a predefined component will be returned. Components can be predefined in the %MAINWEB% and the %TWIKIWEB% where the name of the component is prefix with "TWiki" to distinguish them from the local web components that may be present in the %MAINWEB% and the %TWIKIWEB%. As a last resort the local components of the %TWIKIWEB% are used. By default the NatSkin comes with predefined components * [[%TWIKIWEB%.TWikiWebSideBar]] * [[%TWIKIWEB%.TWikiWebButtons]] * [[%TWIKIWEB%.TWikiWebLinks]] * [[%TWIKIWEB%.TWikiWebTopicActions]] * [[%TWIKIWEB%.TWikiWebHtmlHead]] Example: * use =%<nop>WEBCOMPONENT{"WebSideBar"}%= to display a the sidebar component * use %<nop>WEBCOMPONENT{"WebButtons"}% to display the <nop>WebButtons see also: [[#MYSIDEBAR][MYSIDEBAR]] ---+++ WEBLINK *Syntax*: =%<nop>WEBLINK{web="..." name="..."}%= display a link to a web with the its name and add the SITEMAPUSEDTO description to to the hover balloon. The web name is stripped down to its distinguishing tail, removing all parent web names. *Arguments*: * web: name of the web to link to * name: name to display instead of the web name * format: format string for the web link * marker: string to be added to inserted into the format string if the web link points to the current web The following variables can be used in the format string: * $web: full qualified name of the web, defaults to current web * $topic: name of the topic to link to, defaults to <nop>WebHome * $name: name of the web, all prefixes but its basename being stripped off * $url: url for the link * $marker: the marker set to the "marker" string if the link points to the current web * $tooltip: tooltip for the link, mostly used in a =title= argument of an anchor ---++ Installation Instructions * [[http://twiki.org/p/pub/Plugins/%TOPIC%/%TOPIC%.zip][Download]] the ZIP file * Unzip it in your twiki installation directory.
