see in action here

inspired from newpagebutton

syntax

Just write {{NEWPAGE}} :)

Install

With plugin manager, use this zip : http://dokuplugins.idotech.info/addnewpage_old.zip
or manualy :
extract archive and put folder in your wiki folder “lib/plugins/”

Now, you must edit your config file (conf/local.php) and add this line :

$conf['exclude']=array();

use this array to exclude namespace. For example, if you do not want “wiki” namespace appear in the code write :

$conf['exclude']=array('wiki');

Tips

If you want to show the add new page forms out off a page (for example in your template), put this line where you want to see the plugin :

<?php
echo p_render('xhtml',p_get_instructions('{{NEWPAGE}}'),$info);
?>

If you want to beautify the look of combobox, replace line

$ret='<select id="np_cat" tabindex="1">';

by

$ret='<select id="np_cat" tabindex="1" class="edit">';

18 June - the install does not work with the plugin manager, because the folder is not zipped as well. You need to include the folder. It does work when you go in, make the folder, then upload the syntax.php file into the folder. –Rick Cogley

It does not seem to work with IE6 - gives JavaScript error… FireFox 1.5.x is OK.

Ok, the code is updated (that was an charset error)

Found two problems:

Got some troubles on windows (empty select box). Commenting line 115 fixed it.

//$tns  = str_replace(':','/',$tns);

This tip don't resolve the problem.

This issue is corrected

On IE, parameters are not submitted right. Changing line 90 from

$renderer->doc .= '<input class="button" type="submit" value="ok" tabindex="3"  onclick="v=document.location.href.split(\'?\');document.location.href=v[0]+\'?id=\'+document.getElementById(\'np_cat\').value+\':\'+noaccent(document.getElementById(\'addnewpage_title\').value)+\'&do=edit\';return false;"

to

$renderer->doc .= '<input class="button" type="submit" value="ok" tabindex="3"  onclick="v=document.location.href.split(\'?\');this.form.action=v[0]+\'?id=\'+document.getElementById(\'np_cat\').value+\':\'+noaccent(document.getElementById(\'addnewpage_title\').value)+\'&do=edit\';this.submit();" />';

fixed it. — loïc 2006-04-28 15:00

There is a bug, when you enter ' double times. ! - Stan Pol

On my config ' are deleted. There is an URL where i can see the bug ?
Perhaps adding
temp = temp.replace(/[\']/g,"")
after
temp = temp.replace(/[ç]/gi,"c")
will correct the problem…

Could it have been extended with an optional value in the form of e.g.

{{NEWPAGE|namespace:page}}

to be this referred page used as a template (I mean simply just copy that page’s content)?
Then this button could be used as a ‘Create new page from here using template…’.
Another extension could be where more templates could be given and the user can choose from a droplist.
Is it possible? Is it easy to implement?

Ok, fine, I've found an indirect solution using template_chooser :)

2 Oct 06

when I add the following code:

Testing New Page plugin

{{NEWPAGE}}

It does not work. Please help.

Is there some errors ?

Adding page to root namespace

To allow users add pages to root namespace you may change function _makecombo() in following way:

	function _makecombo() {
		$r=$this->_getnslist('');
		$ret='<select id="np_cat" tabindex="1" class="edit">'; // added class="edit" to beautify combobox
		$ret.='<option selected value="">root</option>';       // empty value for root namespace
		foreach ($r as $k => $v) {
			$vv=explode(':',$v);
			$vv=str_repeat('&nbsp;&nbsp;',substr_count($v, ':')).$vv[count($vv)-1];
			$ret.='<option value="'.$v.'">'.$vv.'</option>';  
		}
		$ret.='</select>';
		return $ret;
	}

One of the idea of further improvement is to select current namespace as a default choice in combobox.

If you can improve it - you're welcome! — Kibi 2006-06-18 11:10

Seems to be ok :)

New page plugin is not working

I have ftp'ed the zip file, unzipped it in the plugins drectory. The syntax.php file was created in the addnewpage directory. I have also updated my main config file, however, I still cannot see the new page items on my page. Am I missing something? Please help.

Did you write "{{NEWPAGE}}" on your page ?

Problems with the ns-exclusion

The namespace exclusing does not work with the newest relise of dokuwiki. How can I pass the config['exclude'] to the script?

Try this release :)

I downloaded and installed the latest release on 28-11. Does not work. Dokuwiki version 6-11-2006. I adjusted dokuwiki/lib/plugin/addnewpage/syntax.php.
if (!isset($conf['exclude']))
	$conf['exclude']=array();
to
if (!isset($conf['exclude']))
	$conf['exclude']=array('namespace 1','namespace 2','...','namespace n');
Not nice, but working for now. See also my next item “didn't work” for an additional problem with dokuwiki 6-11-2006.

Didn't work

On clicking the submit button, I got referred to the URL doku.php?start=[pagename] (check this by using method GET in stead of POST in syntax.php). Don't know what went wrong. Looks like the 2 comments above experience the same. To get it working I changed the following lines of dokuwiki/lib/plugin/addnewpage/syntax.php:
Last unmodified line:

$renderer->doc .= '<input class="edit" type="text" name="id" id="addnewpage_title" size="20" maxlength="255" tabindex="2" />';

Added line (right after the line above):

$renderer->doc .= '<input type="hidden" name="do" value="edit">';

Changed the following line:

$renderer->doc .= '<input class="button" type="submit" value="'.((@$this->getLang('okbutton'))?$this->getLang('okbutton'):'ok').'" tabindex="3"  onclick="v=document.location.href.split(\'?\');document.location.href=v[0]+\'?id=\'+document.getElementById(\'np_cat\').value+\':\'+noaccent(document.getElementById(\'addnewpage_title\').value)+\'&do=edit\';return false;" />';

To this:

		    
$renderer->doc .= '<input class="button" type="submit" value="'.((@$this->getLang('okbutton'))?$this->getLang('okbutton'):'ok').'" tabindex="3"  onclick="document.getElementById(\'addnewpage_title\').value=document.getElementById(\'np_cat\').value+\':\'+noaccent(document.getElementById(\'addnewpage_title\').value);return false;" />';
