Plugin Profile

Introduced in Tiki3

Use this wiki plugin to add an install button for installing a profile. It allows a profile to be installed from anywhere, instead of only via the profile admin interface ( tiki-admin.php?page=profiles ).

Profiles are used to automate configuration of a site, turning on feature sets and permissions schemes and adding content. This way a site can be configured with a single click rather than 100s of clicks. See profiles.tiki.org for more information.

Parameters

Add a button for applying a profile.
Introduced in Tiki 3. Required parameters are in bold.
Go to the source code
Preferences required: wikiplugin_profile

Parameters Accepted Values Description Default Since
name text Name of the profile to be applied. 3.0
domain url Profile repository domain. Default value is profiles.tiki.org profiles.tiki.org 3.0


Limitations

  • It only installs the named profile, not its dependencies (if any)
  • After applying the profile, it returns on the same page from which it was called (it means it ignores going to the Instructions page (if any))
  • It doesn't have the edit plugin helper icon displayed (even if "Disable edit plugin icon (make plugin inline)" is not checked on tiki-admin.php?page=textarea&cookietab=2

Examples

This code:

Copy to clipboard
{profile name="Personal_Blog_and_Profile"}
