Extension talk:Add Article to Category/Archive 1

Thank you for the great extension! http://www.taichiwiki.org--Kohyin 05:20, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

What is the ENDFORM thingy in the code??

This is really a great extension and very helpfull.

I had a suggestion : based on this extension can it be possible your you to create an Add Category to Category extension? So when you have some nested categories, you can create a category inside another one (and so an article) the easiest way possible.

Thanks

 * HI, yes, it is actually not difficult, just add a checked box, when it is check, the title will be added the text :"Category:".
 * However, you can also just input: "Category:whatever" into the text field, and it will add a category to a category.

Thanks for the reply. You mention a 'checkbox', can you explain this a little please? It seems not to be an extension so I don't really know how to add a check box ...

Thanks

edit into
This looks like a useful extension; I've made a slight tweak to cleanup up the way Category: is displayed. I think it would also be useful to have an edit intro in the new page, like the input box extension does. -Steve Sanbeg 21:53, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

I also noticed that it looks a little strange in the diff view; it may be better to supress that somehow. -Steve Sanbeg 22:28, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

New Feature - boilerplate --Dtsig 17:38, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
The users really like this feature. We use this along with CategoryTree so the user can get to the correct category before creating a page. How hard would it be to modify to create the new page based on the category it is being created in. For example, category DOCUMENTATION-FUNCTIONAL would have a specific template created for it. Then on the create retrieve the article and place in instead of 'add your content here'

I have been trying to work this out but being really new to mediawiki it is a bit overwhelming. If you have any ideas i would appreciate them.


 * I'd guess it's not too hard; you can look at inputbox for an example of preloaded text, then figure out from the title what template you want to preload, and load it if it exists. -Steve Sanbeg 22:29, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
