#PRAGMA mode arguments

Mode names are not case-sensitive.

MoinMoin knows few pragmas, and you may add more and use them for your own themes or macros. Here are the known pragmas:

section-numbers

Switches automatic numbering of section headers.

#pragma section-numbers off

off or 0 disable numbering, on or 1 enables numbering. The default mode is set by the show_section_numbers config option.

When enabling numbering, its possible to use specific heading level:

#pragma section-numbers 2

Only displays section numbers for headings of level 2 and up (similarly for 3 to 6).

keywords

adds a <meta> tag with keywords which tells search engines what you can find on the particular page.

#pragma keywords Cars, Vehicles, Foo

description

adds a <meta> tag which contains the description of the particular page.

#pragma description This page is about cars.

supplementation

is used to enable or disable a supplementation for the current page e.g. a discussion page

#pragma supplementation-page on

off disables the supplementation for the current page. See also HelpOnConfiguration/SupplementationPage for more.

#deprecated

Mark this page as deprecated.

#DEPRECATED

Further changes to the page will create no backup versions and using it will cause the current revision to show along with the revision previous to the deprecation. This allows you to remove all of the page's content, insert #deprecated, and then write a short message explaining the reason behind this action. By doing this you are effectively freezing the last version of the page and reducing its rank in search results, but you are keeping the content available for viewing.

#language

Set page language and direction.

#language language-name

Set page language and direction. Language name is the iso-639-1 code. MoinMoin ignore languages that does not have a translation file in MoinMoin/i18n/. See also HelpOnLanguages.
