Did you update the docs? I read them before posting the tip, but couldn't find anything useful regarding the use of _template with the NewPage module (which was breaking).

Thanks again for the explanation.

When saving a new version of the _template, Wikidot recompiles all existing pages of the wazoo category. With many many pages, it can take a while.

The template:wazoo is not mandatory at all, it just helps, at new page creation, to remind that the page actually needs a content{1} and a content{2} (to follow the example you gave).

means - in such a case you need not a "standard" template ( "old" format "template:"categoryxy) for a "newpage" module..

I'm a newbie with Wikidot and couldn't find any documentation on that.

So, you advise to put the template inside category:_template and the defaults inside template:category

Interesting. But I'm not sure how it's better than putting all into one place. Can you explain a bit more why it would be wiser?

Cheers!

wooza:_template

 + %%category%%: %%page_name%% by %%author%% (%%comments%% comments) Wooza! Wooza %%content{1}%% ++ Wikidot rules! %%content{2}%% ------------ [[module Comments]]

and

template:wooza

 This is default content 1 ==== This is default content 2

and elsewhere

 [[module NewPage category="wooza" template="template:wooza" button="w00t!"]]
