Comment: In regard to the enhancement requests below, as of 2.2.28 I assume from [HowToInsertAPage] that the plugin only counts the number of horizontal rules. Is this correct, or does this refer to one of the two older plugin variants? -- Gregor Hagedorn, 2005-09-05
!!Possible Enhancements
Enhance {{section}} parameter to understand ''ranges and lists of section numbers''. For example this sort of thing: {{section='1,3,6-9'}}. Probably a fringe feature, but possibly useful.
Enhance {{section}} parameter to understand !!!Headers as sections. In 2.1.x !!!Headers generate named anchors (see IdeasInPageHyperlinks). This could ultimatly be more useful than numbered sections. Hmm, should a !!!Header indicated section span across !!Headers? Is this at all clear to anyone what is meant by this? --JohnV
I think it's clear: You mean that any {{!!Header}} sections following a {{!!!Header}} should be considered to nest in (belong to) the {{!!!Header}} section. I definitely agree that they ''should'' span that way. It would be nice if one could have access to even finer-grained sections, in particular {{!!Header}} sections (and any of ''their'' nested {{!Header}} sections), the {{!Header}} sections themselves, and maybe even {{;Header:}} sections.
By the way, I think these named section-references (instead of the current numeric section-references) will be ''brilliant'', and I can barely wait for their release! Even more than that, the [aggregate plugin] is going to be a ''hugely'' powerful thing, getting us close to [wiki as database] which, IMHO, is going to make wikis even much more formidable as a knowledge management tool. -- DanHoward, 04-feb28
I've posted an update for the old [InsertPagePlugin] that i feel could be a great improvement for this feature. Basically i am adding support for inclusion been selected to be plain or having a css style added to it so it can be highlited \\
