MicroformatsPlugin

microformat support for Foswiki

Usage

This Plugins adds support for a number of microformats.

1. MicroID, which allows a user to Verifiably Claim their User Topic, through the use of a hash of the Url and their registered email address
   • The microid will be automatically added to the html header when viewing any user's topic.
2. hCard with a little xfn, a simple, open, distributed format for representing Foswiki users.
   • useage: =%HCARD{"WikiName"}% - uses the UserForm data on a user's Topic to create a hCard.
   • perhaps will need to use JS to auto add hCards to user topics?
3. HEVENT{start="" end="" url="" location="" summary="" description=""} calendar view (work in progress)

Examples

If installed and enabled (%HCARD{%WIKINAME%}%): %HCARD{WikiGuest}%

HEVENT{start="" end="" url="" location="" summary="" description=""} %HEVENT{start="24 Apr 2024" url="http://fosiki.com" summary="fosiki rocks your foswiki" description="free open source works."}%
