The following settings are web preferences of the TWiki.Main web. These preferences overwrite the site-level preferences in TWikiPreferences, and can be overwritten by user preferences (your personal topic, i.e. TWikiGuest in the TWiki.Main web)
Web specific background color: (Pick a lighter one of the StandardColors)
Set WEBBGCOLOR = #FFFFC0
Exclude web from a web="all" search: (Set to on for hidden webs)
Set NOSEARCHALL =
Users or groups who are not / are allowed to view / change / rename topics in the Main web: (See TWikiAccessControl)
Set DENYWEBVIEW =
Set ALLOWWEBVIEW =
Set DENYWEBCHANGE =
Set ALLOWWEBCHANGE =
Set DENYWEBRENAME =
Set ALLOWWEBRENAME =
Users or groups allowed to change this WebPreferences topic: (I.e. TWikiAdminGroup)
Set ALLOWTOPICCHANGE =
Web preferences that are not allowed to be overridden by user preferences:
Set FINALPREFERENCES = WEBTOPICLIST, DENYWEBVIEW, ALLOWWEBVIEW, DENYWEBCHANGE, ALLOWWEBCHANGE, DENYWEBRENAME, ALLOWWEBRENAME
Notes:
A preference is defined as: 6 spaces * Set NAME = value Example:
Set WEBBGCOLOR = #FFFFC0
Preferences are used as TWikiVariables by enclosing the name in percent signs. Example:
When you write variable %WEBBGCOLOR% , it gets expanded to #FFEFA6 .
The sequential order of the preference settings is significant. Define preferences that use other preferences first, i.e. set WEBCOPYRIGHT before WIKIWEBMASTER since %WEBCOPYRIGHT% uses the %WIKIWEBMASTER% variable.
You can introduce new preferences variables and use them in your topics and templates. There is no need to change the TWiki engine (Perl scripts).
