UserDashboard

1 Usage

The UserDashboard template allows any logged-in user who has writing permissions, to build customized dashboards to follow up the state of the pages on which this user has a role (e.g. main writer, expert...) to play.

A dashboard is obtained thanks to a Semantic MediaWiki query[ud 1], and is displayed as a searchable and exportable table thanks to the table format and the datatable class[ud 2]. The features of this class are:

  • nice visual appearance
  • search input box for searching within the table
  • easy export of the table's content into CSV, JSON, RSS and RDF
Usage: {{UserDashboard | user=<username> | role=<role> | filter=<filter>}}

Where:

  • <username> is the optional username of the logged-in user who has writing permissions for whom the customized dashboard is built (if any doubt, cross-check, in your preferences, your wiki username). Per default (if <username> is not set), the user who is currently logged-in, is considered.
  • <role> is the optional role (e.g. main writer, expert...) for which the customized dashboard is built. The default value is MW. The possible values for <role> are:
    • MW: main writer
    • EX: expert
    • TW: technical writer
    • MT: maintainer
  • <filter> is the optional filter to reduce the number of listed pages. The default value is assignment. The possible value for <filter> is:
    • assignment: the dashboard lists all the pages that match with the user and role criteria
    • action: the dashboard lists only the pages that match with the user and role criteria, and for which an action from this user is required (e.g. follow-up, review...)
