moving moin from w2k to linux

in Porting an instance from w2k to linux... is there any conversions 
that needs to take place on the moin contents ( I had in mind .txt CR/LF 
conversion)

thanx

Customization

Greetings!

Having just installed my first MoinMoin -- which worked flawlessly 
thanks to the excellent documentation -- I'm now fiddling with the 
details. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find similar help pages for this 
part, but noticed two related posts in the mailing list archives which 
went unanswered:

---
  How do I change common footer that shows on every page (the part that
  doesn"t change)?
---

... and...

---
  Not very often but sometimes I"d like more control over formatting.  Is
  there some way I could embed html code like this for instance:

  <div style="border:1px solid green;padding:1em;">
  blah blah blah
  </div>

  into a wiki page?
---

For the first part, do I really have to tinker with the actual python 
code that generates the templates? Regarding the second question, this 
is something I loved about Instiki: The ability to simply include 
HTML/CSS into the actual text.

There's a plugin named HTML.py for that; you can find it either in your 
download or, if not, on http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/MacroMarket

To activate it, simply create a directory
plugin/macro in your MoinMoin instance and copy HTML.py there.

Then you can include HTML Code by typing [[HTML(your code)]].

Gisbert Amm

Look if it can be done by CSS. If not, hack the theme code 
(MoinMoin/theme/classic.py) or rather derive from the classic theme 
class (like starshine does also).

HTML macro, but be aware this is dangerous.

There is also a simple method to get some static custom html in at some 
predefined places. Look on HelpOnConfiguration, the setting is called 
html_header1/2 and html_footer1/2 (or similar).

Well, working with html is not quite the wiki way. ;)

I dont think there should be issues, but I didnt try it myself.

AFAIK moin strips CR chars anyway, so even the pages should be the same.

So maybe just try and tell us. ;)

Re: Checking a moinmoin site into CVS

> ignore when I import the content?  

The important stuff is all under data/.

text/ is current page text
backup/ are earlier revisions
pages/ are attachments (and minor other stuff)

editlog contains page history (so if you save backup dir, save this one, 
too).

eventlog is only for statistics, you can exclude that if it is too large.

You don't need to save the stuff under cache/.

I hope this helps for CVS and general backup.

moin up to 1.2.x can only offer a wiki farm to do such stuff. This means 
you have one moin code installation and multiple data dirs and multiple 
configs (they may all import some farmconfig with the common stuff) and 
cgi scripts. Using twisted, you can run 1 wiki per IP/port/twisted 
process only.

moin 1.3 (which is currently still under development, to be released 
about 12/2004) will offer also the possibility of having one cgi or one 
twisted process, one config and run multiple wikis on the same IP/port 
with it (still using multiple data dirs, though). It also has class 
based configuration, making farm configs easier.

We are currently thinking of maybe doing namespaces within moin, but as 
thing are not quite clear yet how to integrate this all, this might 
rather be 1.4 or later,

Re: Customization

Gisbert, Thomas,

thanks for the swift reply. I'll take a look at the HTML macro, but 
safety's a good point. Maybe I can tweak the templates in such a way 
that more div classes can be used; basically, I'd just like to see a 
navigation bar somewhere for quickly moving to different categories.

Might have to hard-code that somewhere and simply change the template 
whenever a new category gets added.

Thanks again,

	Oliver

Hi Thomas,

I archived the wiki instance and copied it accross to the Linux host. 
All seems fine except  when trying to access .png attachments I get the msg
"Unknown error" displayed in my browser.

The URL that is being executed looks as follows  (example)
http://wikihost/mtomwiki/WikiSandBox?action=AttachFile&rename=mytest.png&drawing=mytest

Any ideas?

TIA
Tertius

My mistake. I didn't have attachfile activated in moin_config.py
