FoswikiTreeStructure

-- FahadOzair - 13 Oct 2017

Hi,

I have configured Foswiki 2.1.3 on Windows 10(64 bit). I have Perl 5, version - 24, subversion - 1 (ActiveState) Running on Apache/2.4.25 (Win 64).

I want to create Pages in the form of Tree structure in Foswiki (Parent - Child structure). Something like Windows Directory structure, wherein we can create Directory within that we can have n number of different files or Directories. Within Child Directory we can again have n number of different directories or files and so on an so forth. I noticed while browsing that this could be done using TreePlugin and TreeBrowserPlugin.

Since I am new to it, could someone please guide me how can I implement it. Also when I click on to the Index, I should be able to find the tree structure which I can navigate through.

Was able to figure it out: For creating Parent-Child Topics: 1)Created First Topic. 2)While Creating Second Topic Selected First Topic in "Topic Parent". Similarly created the whole tree structure of the Parent - Child Topics.

Once done, installed below two plugins: https://foswiki.org/Extensions/TreeBrowserPlugin https://foswiki.org/Extensions/TreePlugin

Then in WebTopicList included below

%TREEBROWSER{ theme="file" shared="tree" title="" openTo="0" noroot="true" }% %TREE{ web="Support" formatting="outline" format=" * $topic" levelprefix=" " }%

Any Topic that has a child topic will be displayed as Directory and Topic that does not have any Child Topic will be displayed as File.
