- A drawback of referring to a master template is that you can only test a template from within TWiki, where the include variables are resolved. In the previous system, each template was a structurally complete HTML document with a
.tmpl filename extension - it contained unresolved %VARIABLES%, but could still be previewed directly in a browser.

< | The onlywikiname parameter enforces WikiWords for topic names. The topicparent parameter sets the topic parent to the topic where the form is located. | >
> | The edit scipt understands the following parameters, typically supplied by HTML input fields:
| Parameter: | Description: |
|---|
topic | Name of topic to create. Can be set in a text field, or is set programmatically (e.g. with a sequential number) |
onlywikiname | If set, TWiki will complain if the topic name is not a WikiWord |
templatetopic | The name of the template topic, e.g. topic used to copy the initial content |
topicparent | Sets the parent topic |
TopicClassification | Assuming the template topic has a form with a field called "TopicClassification", it will set the value of the field |
anyname | Any parameter can passed to the new topic; if the template topic contains %URLPARAM{"anyname"}%, it will be replaced by its value |
| | |  TIP: You can use the %WIKIUSERNAME% and %DATE% variables in your topic templates to include the signature of the person creating a new topic. The variables are expanded into fixed text when a new topic is created. The standard signature is:
-- %WIKIUSERNAME% - %DATE% | | |

> | Edit Template Topics and Variable Expansion
The following variables get expanded when a user creates a new topic based on a template topic:
| Variable: | Description: |
|---|
%DATE% | Current date, e.g. 01 Dec 2024 |
%WIKIUSERNAME% | User name, e.g. Main.TWikiGuest |
%URLPARAM{"name"}% | Value of a named URL parameter |
%NOP% | A no-operation variable that gets removed. Useful to prevent a SEARCH from hitting an edit template topic; also useful to escape a variable like %URLPARAM%NOP%{...}% |
%NOP{ ... }% | A no-operation text that gets removed. Useful to write-protect an edit template topic, but not the topics based this template topic. See notes below. Example:
%NOP{
* Set ALLOWTOPICCHANGE = Main.TWikiAdminGroup
}% |
Notes:
- Unlike other variables,
%NOP{ ... }% can span multiple lines.
- The scan for the closing
}% pattern is "non-greedy", that is, it stops at the first occurance. That means, you need to escape variables with parameters located inside %NOP{ ... }%: Insert a %NOP% between } and %. Silly example: %NOP{ %GMTIME{"$year"}%NOP%% }%.
All other variables are unchanged, e.g. are carried over "as is" into the new topic. | | | Template Topics in Action
Here is an example for creating new topics based on a specific template topic: | | |
- A drawback of referring to a master template is that you can only test a template from within TWiki, where the include variables are resolved. In the previous system, each template was a structurally complete HTML document with a
.tmpl filename extension - it contained unresolved %VARIABLES%, but could still be previewed directly in a browser.
