How it works/Advanced use/Magic words & parser functions

Currently this platform offers the additional parser functions. They are prefixed with the prefix "ci_" to distinguish them easily from the standard mediawiki magic words and parser functions.

• ci_userAffiliatedTo (parameters: none)
• ci_userRealName (parameters: none)
• ci_isSysop (parameters: none)
• ci_loggedIn (parameters: none)
• ci_HidePathFromPageList (parameters: list, divisor, kind of output)
• ci_visitorIsoCode (parameters: none)
• ci_visitorCountry (parameters: none)
• ci_editors_realnames (parameters: none)
• ci_pageTitlesAttribution (parameters: list, divisor, kind of output)

Examples:

{{#ci_HidePathFromPageList: path/1/2/a#path/1/2/b#path/1/2/c|#|ul}}

It will create the following rendered list

• a
• b
• c

(that is the path of the pages a, b and c will be removed from the list, thus preserving the link paths).

Of course the same function can be used in combination with a semantic query ("ask" function, form semantic mediawiki extension), as follows:

{{#ci_HidePathFromPageList: {{#ask: [[Category:Language_course_students]] |format=array |sep=## }}|##|ul}}

The ask query will return a list of pages (with paths) divided by '##' and the parser function 'ci_HidePathFromPageList' will take that list, will split it using '##' as separator (2nd argument) and will return a 'ul' (unordered list).

{{#ci_pageTitlesAttribution: {{#ask: [[Category:Reading suggestions]] |format=array |?Page creator |?Page author |sep=## }}|##|ul}}
