wiki link timeout

posts: 29 Canada

When looking through the WikiSyntax page, I noticed the following syntax:

((Wiki|desc|timeout))

I've been testing it and trying to figure out how the "timeout" parameter works. But I am still confused.

From what I can tell it flags the link with a "New" graphic to show that the target has recently changed.

Questions:

  • Does that display for all users?
  • What is the unit, Minutes, Seconds, Hours????
  • Does it go away when you look at the page?
  • Does it go away for everyone after someone looks at the page?


I think it's cool if it works well. cool

Thanks!

I found my resultion, so I'm posting in case anyone else cares...

Questions:

* Does that display for all users?
* What is the unit, Minutes, Seconds, Hours????
* Does it go away when you look at the page?
* Does it go away for everyone after someone looks at the page?


Answers:

  • Yes
  • units are seconds
  • no. too bad though.. that would be cool
  • again no.


If the target for a local Wiki link has changed within the timeout period, the "NEW" icon appears. It disappears after that. So if your timeout is 86400 (1 day in seconds) then after 24 hours, if the target page hasn't changed, the icon will go away.
