This page collects ideas and suggestions for enhancing the TracWiki and its WikiFormatting (TracLinks, WikiProcessors, WikiMacros, etc.)

If you have a small nice idea but don't feel like starting a discussion on the MailingList or creating a new ticket, this is the place!

• lots… 148
• see also existing proposals AdvancedWikiFormatting and AdvancedWikiFormatting which also contain ideas for a lot of small improvements

WikiFormatting

Improvements for TracLinks

• auto-labelling: when an explicit label is not given, we use the target for the label; often we just want the last part of the target, which leads to somewhat redundant links like:

  [TracDev/Proposals/AdvancedWikiFormatting AdvancedWikiFormatting]
  [source:trunk/trac/wiki/api.py wiki/api.py]
  

  Often, we could use // as a hint for using only the last part of the target as the label. The above could be rewritten:

  [TracDev/Proposals//AdvancedWikiFormatting] 
  [source:trunk/trac//wiki/api.py]

Page templates

• suggest the most appropriate template: if we're asked to create a TracIdeas/XYZ page then the default page template should be PageTemplates/TracIdeas if it exists
