Splash Page Creation

We can create a single-page web site from wiki (a Splash Page) by combining an HTML Wiki Template with structured information from wiki. Here we explore the basics of how we might do this.

- Redirecting Welcome Visitors

# Template Markup

The aim here is to provide a simple and flexible way to markup any HTML file in order to create a template.

I've chosen the following techniques: - HTML Comment Markup - HTML Substitution Markup

# Splash Page Hosting

We can provide an HTML template inside the following site specific folder (see Custom CSS):

.wiki/status/theme/

Placing a file such as "test.png" in this folder will serve it up to HTTP GET requests with a domain such as:

http://example.com/theme/test.png

So taking an example html file which you want to serve using a locally run wiki - you could place a file here:

.wiki/status/theme/index.htm

So that it would be served at the following url:

http://localhost:3000/theme/index.htm
