Macros allow the insertion of system features into normal wiki pages; the only thing that makes those pages special is that they contain macros. If you edit pages like RecentChanges or SystemInfo, you'll see what that means.

For more information on the possible markup, see HelpOnEditing and HelpOnMoinWikiSyntax.

Search macros

MoinMoin now uses a new search engine, that lets your make sophisticated searches using both the interactive search box or any of the search macros. For more help, see HelpOnSearching.

Macro

Description

<<AdvancedSearch>>

create an advanced search dialogue on the page. See FindPage.

<<TitleSearch>>

create a search box on the page, which search the page titles. See FindPage.

<<FullSearch>>

create a search box on the page, which search the page contents.See FindPage.

<<FullSearch()>>

print a list of pages whose content matches the current page title (like clicking on the page title). See CategoryCategory for example

<<FullSearch(text[, highlight_titles={0|1}, highlight_pages={0|1}])>>

print a list of pages whose content matches the search term. If search_macro_parse_args configuration option is set, then highlight_titles parameter gives ability to control highlighting of matches in page names showed in search results and highlight_pages parameter controls whether links in these search results contain query parameter which turns highlighting of matches in page body.

<<FullSearchCached(text[, highlight_titles={0|1}, highlight_pages={0|1}])>>

Works like the FullSearch macro but caches the results statically. Use it if you prefer speed over an up-to-date result. Behavior of highlight_titles and highlight_pages parameters is the same as in FullSearch macro.

<<GoTo>>

directly go to the page you enter. See FindPage.

<<PageList(Help[, highlight_titles={0|1}])>>

print a list of pages whose title matches the search term. See HelpIndex. Behavior of highlight_titles parameter is the same as in FullSearch macro.
