Question

The summary (the summary field on the edit page) of the last changes is available as a page variable?

Answer

This capability is now built-in to PmWiki as of 2.1.beta23, via the {$LastModifiedSummary} page variable.

The recipe Attach:lastchangesummary.php adds the page variable {$LastChangeSummary}.

Notes

Installation:

Download the script from above and place it in your cookbook directory. Then add include_once('cookbook/lastchangesummary.php'); in your local configuration (local/config.php).

Configuration:

No configuration is necessary. Just install it and the {$LastChangeSummary} page variable will be available.

Use:

Just use it as a normal page variable.

Examples:

Put {$LastChangeSummary} in a page to display the summary of the last change on that page.
Put {=$LastChangeSummary} in a page list format template to display the summary of the current page.
etc...

Comments

How do you use the {$LastModifiedSummary} variable that is built into PmWiki? When I place it on my site, nothing is displayed. ~Steve
