Description
Track the most recent changes to a list of pages
This can be very easily done with page lists on a WikiTrail.
1. Create a page Profiles/YourName-watchlist with a bulleted list of the pages that you wish to track, and some format for the pagelist. Example:
* [[PmWiki.Download]]
* [[Cookbook.Cookbook]]
* [[PITS.00544]]
* etc.
!!Format
[@
[[#simplelist]]
[[{=$FullName}?action=diff | {=$LastModified}]] - \
'''[[{=$FullName}]]''' - [[~{=$LastModifiedBy}]] ({=$LastModifiedSummary})\\
[[#simplelistend]]
@]
2. On your profile page add the pagelist line:
!! Watch list
(:pagelist trail=Profiles.YourName-watchlist fmt=Profiles.YourName-watchlist#simplelist order=-time:)
Example (the list and format are on the page Cookbook.WatchLists-watchlist):
!! Watch list
(:pagelist trail=Cookbook.WatchLists-watchlist
fmt=Cookbook.WatchLists-watchlist#simplelist order=-time:)

Clicking on the date opens the page history.
Single page option
On a page where you have a bullet list of wiki pages follow this markup example
!!! [[Cookbook/Watch list(s)]]
(:pagelist trail={$FullName} fmt={$FullName}#watchlist:)
>>comment<<
[[#watchlist]]
(:template defaults order=-time:)
(:template first:)
||width=* style="font-size:smaller;"
(:template each:)
||%pre%[[{=$FullName}?action=diff | {=$LastModified}]]%%
||''[[{=$FullName}|{=$Groupspaced}.{=$Namespaced}]]''
||[[~{=$LastModifiedBy}]] ||{=$LastModifiedSummary} ||{=$:Summary} ||
(:template last:)
[[#watchlistend]]

- Notes
- the comment hides the page list format from being displayed, yet it is used by the pagelist
-
- you can customise the markup between the anchors ([[#...]]) as required
Notes
Text in the {$LastModifiedSummary} has control characters removed, and formatting suppressed by default.
Release Notes
If the recipe has multiple releases, then release notes can be placed here. Note that it's often easier for people to work with "release dates" instead of "version numbers".
