PTV (i.e. :localptv:Group.Name: ) and generate the pagelist using
the PTV value: "pagelist $:localptv=Group.Name"<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hello,</div>

<div>I'm wondering if there is a way to get PmWiki pagelist
to find links in hidden page text variables which are not
explicitly used in the page. A bit of a long question,
sorry.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>(Simplified) Example:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have a 'generic page' where I collect information in
hidden page text variables similar to this:</div>
<div>
<div> (:Title generic page:)</div>
<div> (:localptv:[[group/name]]:)</div>
<div> (:include template#GenericPageTemplate:)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
</div>
<div>Then there is the 'template page' which handles the
rendering of that information via the include above, the
excerpt looks like this:</div>
<div>
<div> [[#GenericPageTemplate]]</div>
<div> some text... {*$:localptv}</div>
<div> [[#GenericPageTemplateEnd]]</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Now when I try on some 'other page' to get a pagelist
like this:</div>
<div>
<div> (:pagelist link=group.name:)</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I do not see 'generic page' come up in the list.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>To try and piece this apart some and figure out what is
going on, as a test I altered 'generic page' to look like
this:</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> (:Title generic page:)</span></div>
<div>
<div> (:localptv:[[group/name]]:)</div>
<div> (:include template#GenericPageTemplate:)</div>
</div>
<div> >>comment<<</div>
<div> {$:localptv}</div>
<div> >><<</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Now the pagelist shows 'generic page' in the list.
However I'd like to just type in the information on
'generic page' and move on. I thought maybe if all page
text variables were listed in a comment (example concept
below) things might work out but I'm not aware of such a
feature in PmWiki.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>concept example:</div>
<div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">
>>comment<<</span></div>
<div> {$:*}</div>
<div> >><<</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So I thought, maybe I'd try, in vim, to put something
like that together. After quite a lot of looking around
and searching the code I came up with some stuff I put
into config.php.</div>
<div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">function
print_ptvs($array){</span></div>
<div>
<div> $string = "";</div>
<div> foreach ($array as $key => $val) {</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> $string .= $key
. "=" . $val;</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> }</span></div>
<div> return $string;</div>
<div>}</div>
</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">$FmtPV['$AllPTV'] =
'print_ptvs(@$PCache[$pagename])';</span></div>
<div>#$FmtPV['$AllPTV'] = 'print_ptvs(@$page)'; # this
also presents the same view of information.</div>
<div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">### end code ###</span></div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This leads me down a bit of a side track where IF no
page text variables are used on the parent page (ie
'generic page') then they are not shown when I use my new
{$AllPTV} page variable, implying they are not cached. If
I use at least one page text variable in the parent page,
ALL the page text variables show up from {$AllPTV}.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Leaving behind the side track, when all page text
variables are shown from [$AllPTV}, the pagelist still
does not show 'generic page' in the list. It would seem
this pathway is a bad one as the link collection for
pagelist is happening in a different way from what I
thought I understood.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So I'm wondering if someone might have a bright idea
for what I should try next. For now I'm looking at making
sure to explicitly reference all page text variables with
links in a comment on each page, a fair bit of extra
typing in some cases when the idea was to reduce the
typing.</div>
