What I currently have works with the templater plugin, the 'calling' page has something like {{template>hidden:placetpl|name=Bouchemaine}} in it and hidden:placetpl has:- \\ <sql db="sqlite:////var/www/boatWiki/data/meta/rivers.db" wikitext="enable" position="vertical" special="myview" ..>SELECT Name, Description, River, Postcode, Population, Comments from Places where Name like '%@name@%'</sql> \\ \\ <HTML><H3>Moorings</H3></HTML> <database database=rivers places basefilter="Name like '@name@'" nofilter nosort nocol0 nocmds noadd nodelete noview> ... ... ... This uses the sql and database2 plugins to display data from a database. What I want to do is to have a *link* referring to hidden:placetpl rather than having to create a page purely to contain the {{template>hidden:placetpl|name=Bouchemaine}} which I currently have to do. Using templater I have to create loads of almost identical pages with just a different town name in each. The interwiki link syntax just adds the given parameter (such as {NAME}) to the end of the URL, it doesn't make it available in the destination page as I need. -- Chris Green -- DokuWiki mailing list - more info at http://www.dokuwiki.org/mailinglist
