Help on Preferences
- A preference setting lets you define a simple macro? that can be expanded in your output.
- A preference setting looks like this:
3 or 6 spaces * Set NAME = value
Example:
- A preferences setting can be disabled with a # sign. Remove the # sign to enable a local customisation. Example:
- Macros defined using preference settings are expanded by enclosing the name in percent signs. Example:
- When you write
%WEBBGCOLOR%
, it gets expanded to #FFD8AA
- The sequential order of the preference settings is significant. i.e. set
WEBCOPYRIGHT
before WIKIWEBMASTER
since %WEBCOPYRIGHT%
uses the %WIKIWEBMASTER%
setting.
- You can introduce your own preference settings and use them in your topics and templates.
- Preferences can be defined in a number of places:
- DefaultPreferences
- SitePreferences
- Parent webs WebPreferences
- WebPreferences
