====== Incognitek Template for DokuWiki ======

{{ projects:incognitek_template_screenshot.png?200|Screenshot}}
This homepage is driven by the [[wp>Wiki]] engine [[doku>wiki:dokuwiki|DokuWiki]]. I wanted to achieve a clean and well arranged look, while keeping some consistency with the default template. For this reason, I created a new template. If you like it, feel free to use it in your own DokuWiki installation.

**Remarks:**

  * The template was designed for the most common browsers (Firefox, Safari, Opera and IE7). The template also works in IE6, but some of the shadow and hover effects will not be visible.
  * The template was tested in all DokuWiki versions beginning with 2007-06-26b.

**Here are some other pages using this template:**

  * [[http://www.owl-tree.net]] -- The homepage of my girlfriend, Petra
  * [[http://www.besy.co.uk]] -- Andy's Debian HOWTOs
  * [[http://www.nsquaredsoftware.com]] -- an IT startup in New Zealand
  * [[http://mycommit.web.id]] -- located in Indonesia
  * //If you want your page to be listed here, just send me a mail!//

===== Download =====

===== Installation =====

Just copy the files to the directory ''/lib/tpl/incognitek/'' in your DokuWiki installation. You can then choose the template in DokuWiki's settings dialog.

===== Customization =====

==== Menu ====

The menu in the top left position is (currently) not a wiki page, but a simple php file. Nevertheless you should be able to change the contents to your needs even without any PHP knowledge. Just have a look at the original file (''menu.php'') and make the necessary changes.

==== Images ====

The most important images are the logo and the background.

  * ''images/logo.png'' -- That's the logo in the upper right corner. Replace it with a logo of your own (most simply by replacing the text).
  * ''images/background.png'' -- If you do not like the blue spiral, replace it with another image.

==== Colors ====

The colors for most of the elements are defined in ''style.ini''. If you change them in this file, you do not have to alter any of the CSS files.

However, the top and bottom bars (where the trace and the site management links are found) were created using images. If you want to change the color of those, you have to edit the following files:

  * ''images/content_background_top.png''
  * ''images/content_background_bottom.png''

==== Table of contents ====

The table of contents is deactivated by default. To activate it, edit ''style.ini'': 

<code ini>
; display table of contents. "none" -> no, "block" -> yes
__display_toc__ = "block"
</code>

===== Problems or suggestions? =====
