Section editing




Section Editing Redux

Instead of a full blown section editing implementation why not just implement a tag like '<WikiPage>' which inserts the contents of WikiPage (no comments) at the markers location. <WikiPage x> would insert the first x lines of the WikiPage into the current page. And/or <WikiPage Header> would pull just the section of the page which is demarked by Header and EOP or next header. Such sections can be inserted in a special color/block/font/whatever and automatically link back to the original page for editing. The goal is to provide better editing granularity and readability on pages which have lots of information density. Could also be used to mimic blog functionality. -KarmaTester

One of the comments I have heard is that the lack of sections makes editing cumbersome. There is too much scrolling up and down.

Are there any development for section editing going on?
I'm thinking about coding it.

Hi Andreas, section editing is not yet scheduled as a feature, but if you want to contribute code, please download the latest unstable version from the SVN repository and try to code against it. The new formatter in trunk includes a number of hooks and new methods that can be useful to implement section editing.
