Test ASV | PmWiki / PageVariables

authors (intermediate)

This page describes the "variables" that are associated with pages. Page variables have the form {$variable}, and can be used in page markup or in certain formatting strings in PmWiki. For example, the markup "{$Group}" renders in this page as "PmWiki".

Note that these variables do not necessarily exist in the PHP code, because they have to be determined for a specific page. (However, they are usable in FmtPageName strings.)

There is also the form {pagename$variable}, which returns the value of the variable for another page. For example, "{MarkupMasterIndex$Title}" displays as "The Markup Master Index Page".

The page variables defined for PmWiki are:

{$Group} - page's group name, as in "PmWiki"

{$Groupspaced} - spaced group name, as in "Pm Wiki"

{$DefaultGroup} - default group name, as in "Main"

{$SiteGroup} - default group name for e.g. RecentChanges, as in "Site"

{$Name} - page name, as in "PageVariables"

{$Namespaced} - spaced page name, as in "Page Variables"

{$DefaultName} - name of default page, as in "HomePage"

{$FullName} - page's full name, as in "PmWiki.PageVariables"

{$Title} - page title (may differ from Name), as in "PageVariables"

{$Titlespaced} - title/spaced page name, as in "Page Variables"

{$LastModified} - date page was edited, as in "29.12.2005 01:34 Uhr"

{$LastModifiedBy} - page's last editor, as in "Pm"

{$LastModifiedHost} - IP of page's last editor, as in "24.1.26.255"

{$PageUrl} - page's url, as in "http://www.goerler-online.de/asv/wiki/asv_wiki_field.php/PmWiki/PageVariables"

In addition to the above, there are some page-invariant variables available through this markup:

{$Author} - the name of the person currently interacting with the site, as in ""

{$AuthId} - current authenticated id, as in ""

{$Version} - PmWiki version, as in "pmwiki-2.1.12"

{$ScriptUrl} - The url to the pmwiki script
