What’s New? Page and Feed

added in v3

Raven Zachary

Add a What’s New? page to the site showing a hyperlinked chronological list of all new pages. Also allow a feed/module of this to be placed on the homepage showing x number of the most recent pages added.

Can be done in v3 by adding an index block to any page.

e.g. to display the 5 newest pages:

::block-index{orderBy="createdAt" orderByDirection="desc" limit="5"}

Wiki.js needs this type of functionality badly.

Perhaps inspiration could be taken from other wikis, like WikiDot which has what they call their listpages module.

Essentially it allows you to query the database for pages that meet particular criteria, and display them in a specified format. Could be flexible enough to allow, Recent Changes, Tag Clouds, Orphaned Pages, Backlinks, Attached Assets, etc.

Example:

[[module ListPages separate="no" limit="5"]]
%%title_linked%% - [[user %%created_by%%]] - %%created_at%%
[[/module]]

Yes! Not only new pages, but also recently updated pages...

Yes, this is known as "Recent Changes" from MediaWiki.
