The insert page plugin allows you to insert the contents of one page into another.

This short plugin started as a way to simplify a complicated page. Our home wiki has a schedule at the top, my links in the middle and my girlfriend's across the bottom. Each section is a table and between the tables we have some animated gifs. Needless to say, this made the page confusing to edit. With this plugin I can now do something like this:

[{INSERT com.hurlbert.jspwiki.plugin.InsertPagePlugin pageToInsert=HomeSchedule}]
[ValDay/fishswimming.gif][ValDay/ake.gif]
[{INSERT com.hurlbert.jspwiki.plugin.InsertPagePlugin pageToInsert=HisLinks}] \\ \\
[{INSERT com.hurlbert.jspwiki.plugin.InsertPagePlugin pageToInsert=HerLinks}] \\

Very good. I will rewrite the syntax a bit, but expect to see something like this in the next release.

Hey great! As for the syntax, I'm relatively new to java and this is my first public offering to the JSPWiki so I look forward to seeing the changes. I'm still at that stage where I'm learning everyday. Thanks

There's now a InsertPagePlugin in 2.1.37. Thanks, Scott (and AlainRavet, who also suggested the same thing). You can see an example of it running at my weblog.

What is the basic syntax ?? -- OlivierVit

[{INSERT InsertPagePlugin pageToInsert=EditUserHelp}] this doesn't work, how can I use it? -- SebastianPetzelberger

I'm having problems with the 2.1.37 plugin and getting it to include some pages. I can't get it to include my Main or About pages or my FosterSchucker page. It seems to have something to do with including a plugin. Has anyone else seen this? -- FosterSchucker
